Encounter with Subaru Drivers
- Subaru driver fails to check blind spot and was inches from hitting me if I didn't repeatedly honk my horn. (I had decided to pass this car because it was going too slow and was in the process of doing so. I even signaled.)
- Subaru driver hogs left lane and travels well below the de facto speed limit, holding up a long line of traffic behind it.
- Subaru driver directly in front of me approaches a delayed red light, hits the brakes, but still coasts its way through the intersection. There was no one in front of her.
- Subaru driver a few cars back begins to speed, then swerve between lanes, and then tailgates me. Traffic was already moving 65-70 mph on a 55 mph road.
What about Freedom FROM Religion?
Supporting freedom of religion of others does NOT threaten your religious rights. Don't be stupid.
If you answered "A" to any question, then perhaps your religious liberty is indeed at stake. You and your faith group have every right to now advocate for equal protection under the law. But just remember this one little, constitutional, concept: this means you can fight for your equality -- not your superiority.Link - How to Determine If Your Religious Liberty Is Being Threatened in Just 10 Quick Questions
If you answered "B" to any question, then not only is your religious liberty not at stake, but there is a strong chance that you are oppressing the religious liberties of others. This is the point where I would invite you to refer back to the tenets of your faith, especially the ones about your neighbors.
