Sanders and the Free Exercise of Religion

David Marcus at The Federalist has written an article about Bernie Sanders' debt to Religious Freedom.  After noting Sanders' draft status during the Vietnam war, he writes:
In the 1965 Seeger decision the Supreme Court extended conscientious objector status to pacifists whose beliefs were not based on any orthodox religion.
All this leads to an intriguing question: if Sanders didn't have to fight in Vietnam because of his beliefs, why do business owners have to participate in Gay weddings in spite of theirs?
That is a most serious question to be posed to the rabid advocates for so-called marriage equality.

It also brings us back to my point made several times in this blog:  without the design established by the Creator, there are no human rights.
