Speech, Art, and the Masterpiece Cakeshop

Supreme Court
Art
Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado

“Phillips’ petition quotes Barnette that the point is to protect the private citizen from uttering “what is not in his mind.” On this basis the Supreme Court protected from punishment not just students from saying the Pledge, but an automobile owner who covered up the state motto “Live Free or Die” on his license plate.” Center for Vision & Values

NewAnalysis

Sat, 05/12/18

Very thorough analysis of the case and what’s at issue. Best I’ve seen.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

NewRuling?

Sat, 05/12/18

Anyone have an idea when the SCOTUS ruling is supposed to be handed down?

"Our task today is to tell people — who no longer know what sin is...no longer see themselves as sinners, and no longer have room for these categories — that Christ died for sins of which they do not think they’re guilty." - David Wells
