Time to pay up.
And then there’s this. A woman was fired from her job as a teacher at a Lutheran school. She filed a discrimination case. The Supreme Court unanimously sided with the church, effectively saying that a church can discriminate in it’s decisions about employees.
A Lutheran school is a business, not a church. Just because a church runs the business does not mean that religious freedom should trump basic human rights. Besides, I fail to see how settling this woman’s case would somehow infringe upon religious freedom. In my opinion, of course. I’m not a Supreme Court Justice, so my opinion matters little. But this does make me Supremely uncomfortable.

I honestly doubt that the people in the first picture are paying taxes on that house, seeing they’re kids.
