Thread Name: BS: Which law do we follow?
Subject: RE: BS: Which law do we follow?
It's a fascinating problem. I believe that the young man might be doing something illegal. (Discrimination against women). Therefore, I think that he must accept the consequences of his belief. He is entitled to have it and is also entitled to be sued, arrested and incarcerated if found guilty in a court of law.
One thing, it violates the separation of Church and State IMHO.
I believe in following one's conscience if it leads a person to a violation of the law but then that person must accept the consequences. Dr. King and many others have gone to jail over what they believe. Why should this man be any different?
