From Nan’s Notebook:
“We answer to a higher power.”
This is the defense that church leaders offer as California Governor Gavin Newsom (once again) puts restrictions on indoor church services because of the pernicious increase in COVID-19 cases.
Yup. As discussed in one of my earlier posts, the churches are once again complaining that they should be exempt from any and all limitations related to their services.
As most of my readers know, I’m adamantly against any “special privileges” by Christians.
And yes, believers, I’m well aware that the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights states: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …”
The BIG difference is NO ONE is PROHIBITING the free exercise thereof.
