Why Faith Leaders Should Be Concerned About The Equality Act

Among other things, the Equality Act would:

• Punish religious employers, like Christian schools, if they don’t hire LGBT staff;
• Force churches to abandon Biblical teaching on human sexuality;
• Allow men who identify as women to compete in women’s sports;
• Remove conscience protections for pro-life doctors and nurses;
• Punish faith-based charities for their core religious beliefs about human dignity and marriage;
• Open up women’s shelters, bathrooms, changing areas, and showers to the opposite sex;
• Shut down religious foster care and adoption groups if such agencies seek to exclusively place children in homes with a mother & father;
• Force doctors to remove healthy body parts from those who want gender-reassignment surgery;
• Forbid religious individuals & organizations from invoking the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
