Jordan Lorence on NPR: “Gay rights” - Churches should be shaking in their boots



ADF attorney Jordan Lorence appears in this NPR report by Barbara Bradley Hagerty titled Gay Rights, Religious Liberties: A Three-Act Story.

As gay couples in California head to the courthouse starting Monday to get legally married, there are signs of a coming storm. Two titanic legal principles are crashing on the steps of the church, synagogue and mosque: equal treatment for same-sex couples on the one hand, and the freedom to exercise religious beliefs on the other.

NPR has added this update: Gay Rights Law Faces Legal, Religious Challenges. “NPR’s religion correspondent Barbara Bradley Hagerty talks with Jordan Lorence, senior counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, and Chai Feldblum, law professor at Georgetown University and director at the Federal Legislation Clinic, about the battle between equal rights and American ideals of religious freedom.”

The audio recording in the second report featuring Jordan and Chai Feldblum is especially recommended listening. It runs just over 40 minutes.
