      No that's not what happened last time you and I had this conversation, last time you said this directory listing document was some kind of loyalty pledge and I disputed that and you said well its sort of a potential loyalty pledge

      And then in one of the cases you cited courts awarded damages to the aggrieved party who had been fired for their views

      People in 2005 could have cited all the state referenda going conservatives way on marriage, but you'd have been a fool not to notice that these were hollow victories.

      My prediction is that religious views that Evangelicals and Catholics are obliged to hold by their faith will be treated as liability risks by corporate employers, and that there will be an effort to frame teaching these faiths as legal child abuse.

          Bit buried at the moment, but I'll think of some specific terms soon. I've also been trying to find time to write something longer on the current direction of travel first.
