I can understand that you might not approve of the lifestyle, as some kind of religious person, but why do they have to persecute others.
So I’ll try to explain this from my upbringing which was extremely Christian and conservative, they all need every part of their lives to be a constant affirmation and validation of their faith because reality makes believing it literally really difficult. Gay people especially are a very visible reminder of one of the inconsistencies in the belief system because if God is perfect, all powerful, infinitely merciful, and says he loves us and wants to save us from our sin then how can anyone be born LGBTQ when his book calls them abominations. He can’t make mistakes so he must have wanted them to be abominations, but he loves everyone. This obvious paradox is seen as an attack and persecution, which is something their faith has taught them to expect as a Christian.
I’m happily agree that it’s a lot more complicated than that, but that to me is the heart of the matter and can be extrapolated to many of the other things they want and why they refuse to relent. Because if Christianity is the one correct way to live life anyone living a happy life outside of what it prescribes or can’t be happy within those boundaries is an affront to their faiths foundational principles.
A society doesn’t have freedom if I can’t insist others can’t have freedom! /s
You have the right to be a fucking dumbass. A jobless dumbass.
How often does it happen that the people who make such an effort to outwardly project something, is also hiding it… calling it, she is gay
Before appealing, she should take into account whether she can afford to pay more legal costs if (when) she loses again.
I’m sure that will be the lawyer’s first point in the “should we appeal” conversation.
