Thomas and Alito go full pro-theocracy

2020-10-05 17:17:15.479939+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Supreme Court Monday October 5th 2020 Order List, case of Kim Davis v. David Ermold et al, in which Thomas, with Alito assenting, argue that Obergefell v. Hodges was an infringement on the religious liberty of state employees to discriminate against gay people.

It's pretty blatant how clearly they advocate for theocracy.

Edit: Summarized nicely by Peter @shadowfuzz

What Thomas and Alito are explicitly saying is that they believe the Constitution *mandates* that people with "traditional Christian values" are legally able to, in their official roles as government employees, impose those religious beliefs on the citizens they serve.
