Religious liberty, “gay rights” clash in 2 prominent cases

Baptist Press: “Religious liberty suffered a setback in the U.S. but won a victory in Canada in December in two closely watched cases involving the legal tug-of-war between religious rights and ‘gay rights’ . . . Attorneys allied with the Alliance Defense Fund, a Christian legal group, are involved in both cases . . . ‘Christians in the marketplace should not be subject to predatory legal attacks for simply abiding by their beliefs,’ ADF Senior Counsel Jordan Lorence said in a statement.”
