I should have said, “If anyone needs this explained,” – I knew you knew it. Sorry.
The thing is, Steve, (may I call you “Steve”?) your post is the exact type of post Bryan Eckers was lampooning.
Buddy, you are arguing with a joke, and because you are arguing with a small joke, it makes the joke even funnier. I’d even call it prescient
minkey, (may I call you “minkey”?), I think this is a tad more scornful of Steve than is deserved. At worst, his comment is a bit extraneous, like from someone who adds an post-punchline “Yeah, the other side, because that’s where the chicken wanted to go and is therefore why he crossed the street.”
I gather Steve and I are in agreement regarding bad science, hoodoo and control-freakery, it was just a borderline inopportune time and manner to say so.
“Minkey”?
You know, I’m beginning to want to side with fucking Bricker, and I will tell you why. I don’t normally side with him in political issues, but he is the only one here who seems to understand how complicated freedom of religion can be.
And another thing!
I’ve had a long day / last night. (I’m a nightshift RN who is very, very tired right now.) Also a little drunk. So if y’all could just ignore my past coupe of posts,I’d aprreciate it
A ringing endorsement.
The three quarters drunk insomniac seal of approval.
Sorry, I thought was “spell names wrong day.”
It’s obviously “omit pronouns day” instead.
Umm… can anyone actually point to a company with USG contracts that has applied for an exemption? Cause I don’t see General Dynamics or Lockheed Martin exactly firing up their lawyers.
I’m just curious about this because the claim in the article seems basically made up babble to me.

It’s not a completely speculative worry. Plenty of faith-based companies have contracts to provide social services.
By the way: The President issued the Executive Order, without including the requested religious exemptions.
