Mennonite Wedding Hall Owners Under Investigation By Iowa Civil Rights Commission For Not Allowing Same-Sex Marriages On Their Property…


Diversity trumps religious freedom.

Via NRO:

Suppose you decide to rent your wedding hall out to couples to hold their weddings but you also hold a religious belief that marriage is the union of a husband and wife. Can you act on your beliefs in the public square? In Iowa, Mennonite owners of a wedding venue (operating since 2002) face an investigation by the Iowa Civil Rights Commission after the owners declined to allow their business to be used for a same-sex marriage ceremony. (The Iowa Supreme Court mandated a redefinition of marriage to include same-sex couples in 2009.)
