I wonder what the Genesis of this was, they should have made a quick Exodus to be honest though people shouldn't be Judges, they did a real Job on them, pretty Ruth-less.

That's what Isaiah..

There are rules that have to be followed. You can't just bend or ignore the law because you feel like it or dont like it. The law is changed by those in power.

Yeah it would be pretty much the same with people condemning the act and some calling for the facility to be shut down.

Investigate those who participated in the act, and give them the relevant charges.

The government has no business shutting down churches (separation of church and state goes both ways), but if most of the congregation gets charged, the church will probably fall apart anyway.

The usual suspects would carefully dodge any substantive engagement on whether there's any problems with Islamic teachings, while snarkily insinuating that anyone who does so criticise is likely a fascist alt-righter who doesn't really care about the gays anyway.
