[quote=takoma][quote=TheManWithAUsername][quote=Anonymous][quote]Your freedom to believe does not always give you a freedom to act.[/quote] That's always been my take, judging from how courts have ruled on, for example, Native Americans using peyote. I posted pretty much the same thing on this thread or another one - I think it was "religious freedom covers thought, not action," and was crucified. Interesting.[/quote] I think we (I at least) took you literally. The free exercise clause protects many actions, so not just thought.[/quote] TheManWithAHammer hit the nail on the head!. Kristoff said "does not always". But most religious acts [b]are[/b] covered, and it's those acts that are the meat of religious freedom. Acts that are not covered are primarily acts that are contrary to the common good or that impinge on the rights of others. Covered: Your right to decide whether or not to use BC. Not covered: Your right to limit someone else's use of BC.[/quote]
