The Supreme Court is on a Roll
Well it may be alright for the privately run Boy Scouts not to allow openly gay members or leaders, but this week the Supreme Court decided that a public school with public funds could keep a student group from making those same rules. The Christian Legal Society, who brought the law suit after the school cut off access to financial assistance, use of the school’s communications channels, meeting space, and use of the school’s name and logo, does not allow students to become members unless they disavow “unrepentant participation in or advocacy of a sexually immoral lifestyle.” Apparently that includes “sexual conduct outside of marriage between a man and a woman.”
It’s a good decision, but I have to wonder, while the group sounds really REALLY appealing, what gay person wanted to join the CLS in the first place?
