    THE OP and the purpose of this thread -that Agent 47 brought up is that a church was suing for the right
    under the First Amendment in which the govt was prohibiting the free exercise.

    GENTLEMEN!!! - I could not care less about the doctrines of a church -in regards to this unfortunate decision

    So for those of you who brought up the doctrine - are you saying that if a Triniatian church brought the case - then the Court would have ruled differently! It would NOT have made a difference!!!

    If you want to discuss the subject of the UPC and possibly being a cult - then do so in the correct forum.

    (Note - this is plain old Salty talking - NOT Salty the Administrator)

    And Agent 47 - thank you for this informative court case

    Trinity is convoluted, it's far from perfect. Orthodox is CULTIC. I'd love to know the thought process behind guessing what is Orthodox and what is not. But that's for another thread.

    It's amazing how a 'cult' fought for you all the way to SCOTUS. What is your non 'cult' religion doing?

    Obviously a mosque was not sued, thus never got the chance. Now this one church gets all the blame. I doubt it is over. If other rulings have to come down, some one will figure out how to re-visit this one.

    UPC is demonic and lost a case before an equally corrupt institution that okays abortion, for example, and you think the decision is wrong concerning a pandemic? Even if you are correct, who can afford to fight the Feds over this since the lockdown will soon be over and who cares about the demonic UPC since Satan seems to have abandoned them on this case?

    Let Russell Moore rush to the rescue of the UPC--as if it were a mosque to be built next to his home.

    Well there are several national religious groups would do this either for free or reduced rate.

    So when do you think it will be totally over - ie no masks, full travel allowed, ect.
    And is it possible it could hit us again this coming winter?

    So you would refuse his help?

    Well, perhaps you yourself would like to donate your time and money to the cultic UPC, which you say is off topic to define what this demonic cult is. As for the great Russell Moore, he used his office at the SBC to aid in the construction of a demonic mosque, for which the SBC has not given him full recognition. However I am sure that the UPC and the Jihadis will each contribute to the SBC, aren't you?

    As for the lockdown and churches, do you think that the demonic UPC did a good job? More likely, the Chief Justice who thought that Obamacare was a tax and who refuses to discipline the FISA judges, thought that the UPC was a Protestant denomination like the SBC and decided to strike a blow against it. It is doubtful that the Chief Justice knew that the UPC is a demonic cult. The US Supreme Court is infamous for bad decisions dating back to the time of Dred Scott. So if you think that this decision is bad, you can't put it with all of the other bad ones from Washington DC. What I find curious is that Satan abandoned the UPC when they got to Washington DC. Perhaps the continuation of the lockdown is more important to Satan than the idiotic UPC--do you know any of them? Indianapolis is crawling with UPC installations and many Indianapolis people are being led to hell by the UPC.

    Once you mentioned UPC and lockdowns, it is relevant. You can use your pulpit to defend the UPC.

    Do you think that the UPC did a good job?

    Should we expect the SBC to spend money on the UPC case?

    Lets try this one last time!!!!

    This the OP!!!

    So - here is the bottom line - Does a church have a right to continue meeting regardless of what the courts say, under the First Amendment? Regardless of any doctrine that they might believe.

    If you want to discuss Church doctrine - go to this link::

    I would debate you on Trinity any time if it mattered but it does not.

    This 'cult' did more than your 'doctrinally sound' sect and that makes you mad. I'm reminded of the Good Samaritan. It is the reviled who beat the religious and self righteous at exhibiting humanity.

    For purposes of this thread please stick to the subject; challenging Covid-19 measures at SCOTUS
