If so, then fair enough… Of course Gorsuch, or any one else for that matter, is happy for you to express any opinion you have on whatever topic. But that doesn't mean anyone has to listen or even care. The US Constitution specifically defines limitations on the government, not citizens. It is the government or government agencies that can not restrict your voice on whatever topic. The ruling is correct. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If reading it correctly. If before, or during the game, maybe. But after the game, his time is his to do as he pleases. His choice to do it on the 50 yard line is a bit (look at me) silly. SCOTUS got that ruling correct IMHO Did his state funded salary end at the final whistle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the supreme court trashes the separation of church and state, it shows they have an agenda to establish a christian theocracy in the US. "In just a few years, the court has upended constitutional doctrine, shifting from a rule that permits states to decline to fund religious organisations to one that requires states in many circumstances to subsidise religious indoctrination with taxpayer dollars.” https://www.theguardian.com/law/2022/jun/21/sonia-sotomayor-supreme-court-separation-church-state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The teacher in question is, by way of being an employee of a public school, an agent of the government. As such, in the past, it has been held that because their authority is ultimately governmental, they don't have the right to use their authority or position promote religious beliefs. In the past it has been held that such activity is inevitably an abuse of authority since it puts pressure on those who do not share such beliefs to either conform or not conform to a position held by an figure of authority. One whose decision can affect their school career. It was held previously that no student should be put in such a position. Now, apparently, it's okay.

So is it in accordance with the Constitution not to hire someone because they would exercise what the Supreme Court calls their constitutional right but wrong to fire someone for the same practice? If you read my first response correctly, I said "never fire", I never mentioned "hire", you did.

herfiehandbag Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) The whole thing hinges on the matter that private prayer is just that, a matter between yourself and Almighty God. If this gentleman felt the need to pray, there was no need to do so publicly. Or involve anyone else, let alone the football team he was coaching. Obviously, Mass or any other church service is different. That is a public act of worship, and what is more unbelievers would not be attending. By making it public he caused all his own problems. Wasted as it happens, everyone knows surely that Rugby is the Almighty's game! Edited June 28, 2022 by herfiehandbag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be something in that - when Ian Paisley died and arrived in heaven he demanded an immediate audience with God. He was most insistent and would not wait. After ten minutes of him bellowing, Saint Peter shut him up by telling him that God would see him as soon as she got back from Mass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
