Department of Public Works employee Eric Batman claims that having to see a Progress Pride flag flying outside the department’s Alhambra, California, headquarters during the month of June effectively forces him to “celebrate, recognize, and solemnize conduct and actions that he views as sin” in conflict with his sincerely held Christian religious beliefs, according to a lawsuit filed in March by anti-LGBTQ+ evangelical nonprofit the Liberty Counsel.
Pride also is notably not a religious belief. Its a belief in fundamental human rights and equality under the law.
If my religion was that “all government is evil” then there’s no amount of government that would not offend my sensibilities. Notably a lot if “sovereign citizens” believe exactly this and happen to be religious christians.
This should be treated with even more ridicule than sovereign citizen beliefs because this is being offended by a belief specifically opposed to the equality of the law.
