David nails it. Confidence in the moral truth of our beliefs & convictions should make us more, not less, secure in promoting free speech, free exercise, free conscience. We go forward with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right.https://twitter.com/DavidAFrench/status/1175152341944885248 …

I still think people haven’t come down to the nub of this debate yet.

I think David has decisively won the argument on legal rights, legal strategy & the Constitution. The counter-argument is what to do 1) in politics/policy areas not constrained by Con Law or 2) in the culture broadly. But that risks agreement in lieu of argument.

I see. But even philosophically there are obviously types of disagreements or issues where reciprocity between equal persons (good) bleeds into reciprocity between good and evil.

The disagreement is akin to the one the larger culture had over SSM. Both sides could claim they believed in equal rights, but they defined the subject differently.

I quoted Lincoln's 2d inaugural earlier for a reason. Just before that line, he draws an equivalence: both sides invoked God, neither got what they prayed for. But he never gave ground on the duty to do right as we see it, or on the rightness of his side.
