1) The “religious” ban rather assumes that gay, lesbians, etc. people are not religious. Most that I have encountered are quite religious although a good number have joined groups that don’t care about sexual orientation.

2) the dividing line, as I understand the argument, is that an individual can not be forced to perform acts or a service that violates their religious beliefs. On the other hand, a firm, company, group that performs a generic service (lunch counter, restaurant, etc) can not reject patronage due to race, ethnicity, etc. I hope that Metzgers looses business and the gets sued. Personally, I’d be very suspicious of the staff and management of any business that put a sign like that on their door. “Freedom of Religion” includes the right to have or not have a faith. If the gay, lesbian, etc can’t deal with the “conventionals”, perhaps they should find a basement to hide in.

It seems simple to me. Maybe Metzgers should require any group contracting for a meeting to acknowledge that they don’t care who, or what, the waiter/waitress slept with the night before the event. The sign on the front might just warn that the staff is untrustworthy. If you care how your food is prepared, go someplace else.

An alternative would be to require all employees to wear rainbow hearts as part of their “flair.”

Too bad these Christians didn’t demand that the restaurant bake them a religious cake. Then they would have an obvious leg to stand on. Instead, the LGBTQ+/ (division sign, as in dividing rather than uniting) community demands to have it both ways. It would be a double standard, except that the standard is for them to always have it their own way at the expense of everyone else. Didn’t kindergarten teach them the lesson of getting along with others? If not, what did they learn in grade school and high school?

scruboak is right, but in the other direction: their community may force the wedding cake bakers to participate in their weddings, but they need not merely serve those same bakers. No, wait. scruboak thinks that the bakers wouldn’t serve, but they were perfectly willing to bake the cake, they just didn’t want to participate in the nuptials. IF (a big “if”) all the LGBTQ+/ employees were unwilling to serve religious people, then I think we can conclude that most or all of this community are this bigoted. Then the question would be: is bigotry baked into that DNA or are they taught it?

It must be so good to be such special people that always get their way. One might even call it privileged.

They specifically say ALL religions.

If they just wanted to stop people who did not like the LBGTQRNA community they could have just posted a sign that said that they fully support the LRGTQAAA community. Then those who do not care for the community would not eat there of their own accord. ‘

But by saying religion they included religions that agreed with them also. And as previously stated its states law “race or religion” period, not a specific religion.

No Christian should ever eat at this restaurant. It is obvious they hate Christians so you would not know just what they may do to your food.

The Left Is Melting Down Over An Election Case About To Be Heard By The Supreme Court

“Just what is this “fringe” theory? Progressives call it the Independent State Legislature Theory, but most Americans have another name for it: THE CONSTITUTION!

All the way back in 1787, the Framers had the foresight to give the power to write the rules of federal elections to lawmakers — not courts — and that’s driving today’s litigious left crazy.

Queue the outrage from Elias and others. After all, if the Justices issue a constitutionally-grounded ruling in this case, their highly lucrative, nationwide campaign to use rogue courts to rewrite election laws for political gain could grind to a halt. If it does, Elias will have nobody to blame but himself.”

DO YOU GET IT YET?

We all reasonably believe at this point that the Covid health emergency was based in a virus that was up manipulated and made in a lab in China and it was either released on the world due to human error, or it was as a result of a preplanned effort by those in the Globalist / “Progressive” / Liberal / Leftist agenda of “Properly” (Your government) controlling the population primarily of the first world.

And we have all seen the outrageous actions that have been taken all around the world as these actions of “Proper” population control by these governments. And what is the next step as this trend progresses?

We all are witness to the many abuses of power taken by our own government and we in America are all witness to how elections have been perverted and corrupted from education actively teaching children to hate America, to teaching children to reject their sexuality, to the feminizing of our military, to the reasonable questioning of the validity of our election system based in the many now legal ways that they can be devalued and stolen.

You always rejected the idea that these “Woke” / “Progressive” primarily Democrat / RINO “Climate Change” warriors were that Orwellian. Well how do you feel about that position now as the water gets warmer and warmer for you and the rest of the frogs?

For your and the population of the entire earth they seek to own and manage you. Do you get it yet?

But the local churches and other religious organizations should get together and actively start a campaign and advertise the restaurants refusal to serve religious people.
In fact I would invite any Wicca or Satanic religion to join in.

If the restaurant serves them then a law suit is justified. You can not say no religious groups them openly allow even one.

This will never stand as written. They will capitulate long before any court date but why should any religious people go there after?

As soon as you decide to become political in your business, you are a political business. Good, bad or otherwise.

You are there as a general rule to objectively do business and unless there has been some threat of violence related to this organization, you should just suck it up and objectively do business.

Just off the top of my head, meat eaters as a general rule are not known to be big supporters of the “Woke” agenda.

But there is a bit of a disconnect here, you would think that “Metzgers Bar and Butchery” would primarily be a steak house.

http://www.metzgerbarandbutchery.com/eat-1

But it seems reviewing the menu to be more of a salad and trout kind of place.

If they were a solid steak house as their company name indicates I would think they would be shooting themselves in their righteous buttocks. But it looks like they are more of a “Woke” business catering to the “Woke” in their community.

If you can discriminate in your business and make it work for you then more power to you.

As a general rule I would not draw business / political lines like that.

Rhetorical question, I already know the answer.
