Yes, there are serious implications for this case.
ReplyDeleteThey are getting public money and serving all denominations. Because of this, they cannot do this. So, they either have to shut down the whole thing (if they want to keep their policies) or get off from public funding, rely completely on private Christian money, and only serve Christians.
Interesting times it is.
