John Loeffler: June 11, 2018

What do freedom of religion rights look like after the Supreme Court's decision in the Colorado cake baking case?  In this week's boralogue, John looks at the positives and negatives of the case's outcome and asks the question: should you be compelled to provide a service or do something in the course of your business that goes against your conscience?  If your philosophy is based on positive rights and relative, flexible values, the answer is yes.

Is there a blue wave coming this November?  We welcome back author and expert on political forecasting Dr. Gerard Lameiro (www.greatnewsforamerica.com) who analyzes the political leanings of America's electorate and discovers that, despite inaccurate polling, we may just see a different-colored wave this November.

The Supreme Court's decision in the Colorado cake baking case was a win for Jack Phillips.  But does it mean future cases will see a similar outcome?  Jenna Ellis (www.dobsonfamilyinstitute.com), Director of Public Policy for the James Dobson Family Institute examines the truth behind the decision and advocates for close adherence to what the Constitution actually says.

The European Union has seen a rise in populism through several recent elections, including in Italy.  Political strategist Pat Caddell discusses the future of the EU amid deep discontent from its citizens and looks at slanted news coverage and biased social media sites that are trying to stifle debate.

 

John’s quote of the week:

"With the belief that the Constitution is a living breathing document, that one set of rights clobbers another set of rights, we never know from moment to moment where we stand in the law.  And that's the problem with all fungible, all living breathing, all relativist rights – they chafe at any idea that they should be shackled down by the chains of the Constitution."
