PETITION TO SENATOR CORY BOOKER
Tell Senator Cory Booker: Don’t exclude Christians from public service!
Tell Senator Cory Booker: Don’t exclude Christians from public service!
Christians, at an alarming rate, are being pushed out of the public and private sector. The latest example of this discrimination comes from the Senate hearings for Mike Pompeo –President Trump’s nominee for Secretary of State.
During the hearings, Senator Cory Booker from New Jersey blasted Pompeo for his Christians beliefs about marriage. Essentially, Booker has demonstrated that he believes that individual who holds to traditional orthodox Christian teachings should be excluded from public office.
This must not be allowed to stand. Please sign this petition to Senator Cory Booker now telling him that you strongly condemn his discrimination against Christians.
Booker grilled Pompeo for his beliefs about same-sex marriage. Although Pompeo reaffirmed numerous times that he has always treated all people, regardless of religion or lifestyle, with the utmost respect, that wasn’t enough for Booker.
Take a look at the transcript.
Booker: “Is being gay a perversion?”
Pompeo: “Senator, when I was a politician, I had a very clear view on whether it was appropriate for two same-sex persons to marry. I stand by that.”
Booker: “So, you do not believe that it’s appropriate for two gay people to marry?”
Pompeo: “Senator, I continue to hold that view.”
Apparently, Booker thinks that a Christian who hold Christians views is disqualified from holding public office.
Through his bigoted lines of questioning, Booker has demonstrated a stunning ignorance of Christian orthodoxy.
This level of bigotry and intolerance is truly unprecedented in national politics. Please ask Senator Booker to reconsider his radical, bigoted views. Americans can disagree about religion, and still live in a tolerant pluralistic society
Booker’s position is unacceptable and untenable with basic religious freedom in America. Booker’s de facto religious test is unconstitutional and should be forcefully rejected!
