ACLU Forces Churches in Illinois to Hire Homosexuals Against Their Religious Beliefs
SB 3186's intention, as stated by its sponsor, is to force public acceptance of sexual behavior irrespective of those who morally or conscientiously object to the homosexual lifestyle—and irrespective of State and Federal constitutional safeguards of religious freedom. This means that religious or values based organizations which refuse to hire avowed homosexuals can be charged with discrimination because of this proposed new law covering “sexual orientation” (homosexual, bisexual, or "transgendered" behavior). What legislators and media pundits missed is obvious: requiring anyone or any organization to violate its own moral teachings and values system, even in the name of anti-discrimination and tolerance, is itself an act of discrimination and secular intolerance.
An atheist group can single handedly turn us into a Gastapo State?
The Illinois Bill of Rights guarantees: “The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without discrimination, shall forever be guaranteed, and no person shall be denied any civil or political right, privilege or capacity, on account of his religious opinions” (Article 1, Section 3 of the Illinois Bill of Rights)

The following video footage from “Outfest” shows Michael Marcavage with a bullhorn attempting to sing and speak the gospel. The people in pink are the Pink Angels, and they are using 10 feet tall Styrofoam boards surrounding the Christians to block their signs, impede their movement, and prevent people from seeing them. The loud noises you hear are the Pink Angels blowing whistles and horns to drown out the Christians’ message.
(This footage was filmed by an outside non-religious group, Enough Said Productions. They were filming Michael for part of a documentary on the First Amendment in America and captured the entire incident on camera.)
