Episode notes
Courts Versus Religious Conscience
- The government is pursuing a long legal campaign to force Catholic groups like the Little Sisters of the Poor to pay for contraception and abortion coverage.
- Michael Knowles argues this is part of a broader leftist project aimed at undermining the Church and religious authority.
Kim Davis As A Conscience Example
- Knowles recounts the Kim Davis episode as an example of conscience clashes with judicial rulings on marriage.
- He notes her legal fight continues and is tied to challenges against Obergefell and jury damages against her.
Revisiting Substantive Due Process
- The legal route to overturn Obergefell may run through attacking substantive due process rather than directly targeting the marriage ruling.
- Clarence Thomas and some conservatives favor revisiting substantive due process to challenge cases like Roe and Obergefell.
