    “Opposition in some cases has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs. All of us who welcome today’s news should be mindful of that fact; recognize different viewpoints; revere our deep commitment to #religiousfreedom.” -Pres. Obama on Obergefell v. Hodges, June 26, 2015https://twitter.com/SenatorLankford/status/1003680173391273985 …

    The Masterpiece Cakeshop #SCOTUS decision affirms that the 'free exercise of religion' is more than freedom of worship, it’s the right to live a faith. In a free society, we can disagree on marriage, honor dignity of all persons, & respect diverse views. http://goo.gl/3bnTXE

        Again, if you truly believed this, you would speak out about the hateful speech that comes out of the WH.

        Just a reminder - the belief of many that black people were intended by God to be slaves represented "sincere and deeply held beliefs." It doesn't matter if they are sincere and deeply held - that's just a dodge.

        So now any Christian "claiming" business could refuse service to gluttons, to adulterers, to anyone they deem is sinful. And under the same banner of "religious liberty" muslims can refuse service to Christians or Jews. Religious liberty is not religious discrimination!

        Your religious freedom should not override my personal freedom. Remember that when you and @gop go after woman's choices for health care, marriage, parenthood and work.

        Why are Evangelical Christians such bigots and racists? That's not the Jesus I grew up reading about.

        James boy here wasted 40k in tax payer money so he could get faith based consulting. Sounds like he paid some of his church buddies with our money for their votes. #Oklahoma #replacelankford #endRepublicancorruption

        Be mindful that a religion you may not approve of will want to discriminate because of faith and you will be in a box

        Sure, you will comment on this, but would NOT take my call today. Why, because I didn't donate millions to your slush fund!? WHEN are you going to comment on the POTUS saying he can pardon himself? I am a constituent. I'm waiting on your statement!

        If you believed this then you would do something about the hate and divisiveness coming from the White House. You would also quit doing everything in your power to help the very wealthy and hurt the rest of us.

        Huh? How can you both say one person is less than AND treat that person with dignity & honor? Too many used so called religious beliefs to keep blacks down. So, no yay for Rosa Parks?

        Fine, but it should require them to clearly display this so we know which businesses will turn us away. It’s embarrassing, and frankly nerve wracking not knowing.

        Evangelical Christians give Jesus a bad name. They turn young people off of the church. They espouse hatred and bigotry. What’re you saying here, Senator? Or are you just talking double speak again, as usual?
