Hmm. If only their were an amendment baring congress from doing that very thing.
No, they want to stop religious people behaving in a way that is not considered correct for the society now. For example if my religious belief is that I should cut the still beating heart of a human and display the corpse the state be able stop to that. If you agree then you are restricting the religious rights of an Aztec priest, shame on you.
Why did you jump to aztec preists? we are not discussing the azetec preists we are discussing one specific Christian Church. prohibitive or exclusionary practices are apart of ALL Clubs or in this case Churches. One Can't be a mormon and a catholic at the same time. just like in some churches you can not be a unrepentant 'sinner' and a member. To some legalistic 'christians' inter mixing races is a sin. So then the question becomes shall congress pass laws defining what is and is not sin for the church?
