Religious liberty advocates have high hopes for Supreme Court cases, even if Ginsburg isn’t replaced

(Worthy News) – Senate Republicans are aiming to confirm President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee before the election, but even if they fail, religious liberty advocates expect favorable decisions from what could be an eight-man court.

The court will begin hearing cases early in October, well before the Senate has the opportunity to fill the vacancy left by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death last week. Several of the cases will consider questions of religious liberty, most prominently Fulton v. City of Philadelphia, to be heard the morning after the election.

The case, which pits gay and transgender interests against those of Catholic Social Services, a faith-based adoption agency, is the latest installment in a series of cases where government ordinances have brushed up against Christian sexual and moral teachings. In this case, the city of Philadelphia cut off business with CSS after it was revealed that the agency was bound by church teaching not to place children with gay or transgender parents. The case will examine whether Philadelphia violated the First Amendment’s Free Exercise and Free Speech clauses by refusing to work with CSS. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
