In a momentous ruling, the Supreme Court has once again championed freedom and struck a blow against government overreach. This time, the case at hand was Groff v. DeJoy, Postmaster General, and it centered around a devout Christian mail carrier named Mr. Groff who refused to work on Sundays, as he observes it as the holy day of the Shabbat.
Mr. Groff’s unwavering belief is rooted in the 4th Commandment, one of the ten timeless principles found in the Bible. It unequivocally states that “the seventh day is a sabbath unto the LORD thy God, in it thou shalt not do any manner of work.” As a faithful servant, Mr. Groff simply couldn’t compromise his deeply held religious convictions.
Now, let’s talk about the other side of this story. The liberal elites and their activist judges have long used Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as a weapon against religious freedom. They say that employers must accommodate employees’ religious practices unless it causes “undue hardship” for their businesses. What a load of nonsense!
In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court rightly put an end to this absurdity. Justice Alito, writing for the majority, made it clear that the “de minimis” standard, a legal term that even most adults struggle to understand, was a flimsy excuse used by the left to infringe on religious liberties. This is a victory for sanity and common sense!
Of course, the liberals on the Court couldn’t resist sharing their misguided thoughts. In a rather feeble concurrence, Justice Sotomayor and Justice Jackson bemoaned the decision, claiming that the language used in previous cases concerning religious accommodations was too loose. Well, excuse us for prioritizing the Constitution over linguistic nitpicking, Justice Sotomayor.
This landmark verdict has sent shockwaves throughout the legal community, much to the dismay of the progressive agenda. Attorney Robert Barnes, a true defender of constitutional rights, exclaimed that this decision would have significant implications for future cases. He rightly pointed out that vaccine mandate lawsuits will now have a stronger chance of success, putting an end to the infringement of bodily autonomy.
The Supreme Court’s unwavering stand for religious liberties in the Groff v. DeJoy case is a shining example of why conservatives fight so hard to protect our rights. It’s a triumph against the forces that seek to chip away at our freedoms and impose their radical beliefs on hardworking Americans. May this ruling be a beacon of hope for all those who cherish their faith and refuse to bow down to the secular elites’ whims.
Big decision today by #SCOTUS unanimously agreeing that employers cannot discriminate against religious employees unless it would be a "substantial" cost to accommodate them. This makes it much easier to win the lawsuits against vaccine mandates, and help those fired b/c of them.
