It's comming folks. Most assuredly.
I think you may be missing my point. The Law should protect the Church, as it should also protect the citizen. What I'm saying is that a person who is fired by a non-government entity (i.e. sovereign), according to my naive opinion, should not have redress by taking it to the courts, since the courts ought not be bringing jurisdiction over a sovereign entity that has not broken any government laws. I dunno...I'm just an Arkansan.
