George Orwell was just a few decades off, but…
"... this week, religious tyranny came to Michigan, with House Bill 5958, The Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA). This bill legalizes a Christian extremist’s religious freedom to discriminate, and commit other breaches in law and social mores. The law makes it legal to refuse service, deny employment, housing, and violate other citizens’ rights, any rights, if a theocrat claims it violates their religious freedom and objects on religious grounds."
It has been reported by several outlets, yet this one goes into details that may have been glossed over..…and probably been hailed a "conservative Christian victory" on FOX. And it will be interesting to see what Justice Scalia has to say if Michigan's law is tested by the SCOTUS, since at one time he stated: "it would be “courting anarchy” to create exceptions every time a religious group claims that a law infringes on its religious freedom."
Right Wing media has turned reality on it's head, as usual.

There is no war on Christians or Christianity….it's just their war on everybody else…..
