The Supreme Court voted 5-4 to bar New York state from reimposing limits on religious gatherings

In May and July, the Supreme Court narrowly rejected challenges to virus-related restrictions on churches in California and Nevada, with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the court’s Democratic appointees to stress that state and local governments required flexibility to deal with a dangerous and evolving pandemic.

much tighter than those adopted by many other jurisdictions hard-hit by the pandemic, and far more severe than has been shown to be required to prevent the spread of the virus at the applicants’ services.” Under New York’s system, religious services held by congregations in “red” zones are limited to 10 people, while those in “orange” zones can host up to 25 people at a time. On Monday, Cuomothe areas occupied by the religious congregations involved in the litigation into the “yellow” zone, lifting the most onerous restrictions, but areas in Staten Island and in Monroe and Onondaga Counties are now under the “orange” limits.

As long as the churches give that tithing to the homeless.. not their greedy pockets to spread this virus. If the pastor has a home n car. That money is for homeless n poor not richy rich pastors. Let's get it straight!!Where and when are our homeless getting our tithings? Swnews

God bless Amy!

Xsqs awww

Doctors and nurses should walk and stay home to protest. Why would you risk your life while there are complete ignorance at the highest level.

So if they are End Times Christian then what’s the issue, it’s just accelerating what they want, no ?

Good. The herd needs to be thinned out, anyway.

You are illegally in your job who put you there he is a liars criminal corruption fraud losers man👿👿😡👿😡👿

This is the most politically biased decision the supreme court has made. And why at this time? This involves lives, people can die. I have never known any court making a decision that will take lives. I suppose it's payback time. These judges owe Trump a debt.

Yes best thing trump did last month!!

Raise your hand you are surprised. The damage to our country during Trump Admin will be felt for generations unless we start getting busy now and stay invested! We all need a break after 2020, but come back fighting for all our lives & for the good we can stand for!

Wow, raise your hand you are surprised. The damage to our country during Trump Admin will be felt for generations unless we start getting busy now and stay invested! We all need a break after 2020, but come back fighting for all our lives & for the good we can stand for!

Evidently Justice Roberts is more interested in not putting limits on Government than he is putting limits on the people.

So should fire marshals stop setting occupancy limits on houses of worship and other religious venues?

Amy Cucu

So stupid. Hospitals are bursting at the seams, medical staff reaching dangerous burnout. Businesses are closed, food lines stretch for miles. Sure, let’s have super-spreader church.

Wow. She's wearing a mask.

OMG....CHANGE HER NAME PERMANENTLY TO AMY COVID BARRETT

Great let them infect one another but they have no right to expect medical professionals to help them if they become ill. BBCWorld cnni tarbellorg DCReportMedia washingtonpost bpolitics HuffPost thedailybeast FoxNews foxnation thedailybeast AP nytimes

Good lord, we should only hire atheists to the Supreme Court.

Guess the virus needs to continue to spread

Thank you Supreme Court ! Let Americans make decisions that are right for them ..

And you don't think the highest court in the land is biased?! Religious rights weren't this issue. The issue was to stop the virus spread. All large public gatherings were stopped. SCOTUS SCOTUSfail

Let the stupid people spread it among themselves. Fuck em.

The left has something on John Roberts!

She just signed innocent people’s death warrants.

AND THIS IS WHY WE NEED TO PACK THE COURT NOW!!

This is why the court must now become built out to be more representative of this country

Shame on them for a blatant disregard of life.

Now there's a Trump idea. Keep allowing people to pack into buildings in order to feed the spread of the virus.

Loving neighbors, one community spread infection at a time.

Religion is terrorism.

And every soul that falls to this disease because of this partisan decision will be on you ...

Darwinism will win this one.

Coney Barrett will ruin this country

Putting religious in front of people health is the dumbest things I seen!

In addition to trying to start a racial war, the reactionary demented wing of the SOTUS will now take a shot at pushing their religion on the rest of via the power of a dangerous microbe. If you can’t discriminate to stop a pandemic, then you’re a banana republic

MURDERERS!!

Hear we go Maggie_Vespa

It is indeed a deficient faith to believe in a God that is confined to a building, service or select group of people. What a joy to consider the wonder of a Creator of the Universe whose omnipotence and wisdom is inclusive of all we know, see, think & imagine - including science.

“Life” worth more than any “religion and idiology”, you can only live once but can change religion everything or prey different Gods anytime. It is priority for everyone to stay alive and let others live. Life is a blessing, you can thank good for that in any setting!

Covid-19 is giving too many people a blank check -- including people who ignore established election laws.

Good

Guess the Dems still have Roberts!!

Can they also vote that if you catch covid by disregarding rules of covid, you aren't entitled to be treated in a hospital

🥵

As long as they don't go to the grocery store, don't infect the sane people

Great

First amendment

As a nurse , people contract covid from the rally’s they have but not much I said

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Big mistake...BIG!

Good

So now Supreme Court justices know more about science than scientists

What other laws can religious institutions ignore without recourse ? Does this unfettered right apply to all religions or just Christian sects ? Tell us 5-4 justices.

Good for the Supreme Court.

Look at the liberals crying because they lost again to the Constitution. ;) Thats why they will lose the Georgia runoffs & why biden cheated because they want to change America because they are Anti Freedom/Anti Constitution. Liberals=Traitors

So the SCOTUS said it's ok in Ca and I believe its Nv but not ok in NY hotspots...

Look at the Anti Freedom/Anti Constitution these Anti American liberals are. Just look at them always complaining when the Constitution gives Americans freedom.We don't govern by Science,We govern by The Constitution and it says the law cannot stop us from going to Church ever.!!

Let them have Covid!!

Jesus wants you to die of Covid!

I think it’s time for the radical left and the news media to downplay Covid.The election is over.I don’t think you need mass hysteria any longer.If the CDC and Fauci had been honest to begin with people would’ve complied, it’s become complying with a false narrative,people won’t.

What a bunch of hypocrites🙄 so when your party is doing these “peaceful protest” and when Biden was announced “president-elect” you guys were on the streets no social distancing and whatsover... that’s not mass crowd? That’s okay? What a fucking HYPOCRITES!!

Thank you, Justice Barrett, for protecting the right of all Americans to ignore social distancing and put the health of others at risk. Your self righteousness is just what the country needs to make increase infections and deaths.

Phrases, not Christians.

The Supreme Court can go “f” themselves.

gop and Amy are both pro-Covid and pro-death! Stop calling them pro-life! They are pro-fetus! ProFetus

This is fucking sinister.

How could it even be close?

Yet, it is illegal to gather like this elsewhere? Isn’t this hypocritical, unethical, bias undemocratic and discrimination in favour of a minority.

Nobody is saying you can’t hide in your basement libs🤷‍♂️

And so it begins. Religion infusing itself into state. Just like the constitution said it shouldn’t.

Great news!

To require lower attendance for safety should not be an issue. Most people will not attend anyway under the risk to health, and will pray and watch virtual services.

My wifes Uncle died from COVID-19, he got it from people at his church coming and doing prayers with him at home.. Covid doesn’t care about religion

This is ridiculous. Now they have blood on those hands.

which then endangered health care personnel and everyone's lives in the U.S. + globally. There is no equality in their ignorance.

LOVE Amy!!!

Religion is “Aquiles’ heel” of USA. False prophets Pastors from Mega Churches, Imanis, Jews Ultra Orthodox Rabbis & Cult leaders abuse Religion Freedoms laws of USA for their fanatic ideas. SCOTUS with 3 new Judges is now image of Trump

Time to pack the damned Court!!!

and God said Let there be Super Spreaders!

Problem is separation of church and state

AmyCovidBarrett

Hope is back.

WINNING!!!

This just begs the question, how can otherwise intelligent people, be so stupid as to put so many lives at risk? Surely they must know it’s not just church people they will come in contact with & endanger. This is a health crisis, not an everyday situation. Shameful & ignorant.

Yeah....I think it has something to do with the Constitution.

Mixed emotions on this one. Sure we want them to be safe... but they all gather in a church and spread it purposely... If they don't care about their own health, the hell I will. I would be more worried the SCOTUS now wants to kill you.

Since when does the SCOTUS step in front of our many health “Experts” that make these calls for the purpose of “Saving Lives” to say we don’t agree with saving lives so religious gatherings are exempt from any “Health Expert” recommendations based on “proven” science?

don't worry about covid, Jesus saves, 🤣🤣

Annoyed at pro-pandemic churches and religious groups

When there's no ICU beds available take them to the supreme court and drop them off.

Correct Open America Now

I guess Twitter won’t allow us to view a Supreme Court decision..hmmm can you say censorship?

Cuomo is a dirtbag

At least 5can read and interpret the constitution

If Right Leaning means preserving individual Freedom and liberties then count me in.

What Would Jesus Do? Is it virtuous to spread disease to your fellow men and women?

Roberts is a terrible Supreme Court Justice

Why only show a picture of Barrett- she wasn’t the only one to vote in the majority here?

They didnt have its not like us nykers was gonna listen to cuomo and diablasio

Perfect

What is wrong with this woman? How very sad and dumb of this woman who has been appointed to the highest court in our country to make this reckless decision. Heaven help us all!

Thanks to “Blessed Be the Fruit “

Amen 🙏

In what will forever be regarded as the: “let ‘em die” decision.

Remember elections matter

Finally..a ruling that actually upholds the constitution while the democrat tyrants continue to wipe their asses with it

SCOTUS Not a very encouraging beginning, when 21st century science is defeated by 18th century judiciary.

Whoopeeeee … 270,000+ dead and counting—MAGA! Winning! … The Trump Virus: The U.S. has 5% of the world's population but 25% of the world's COVID deaths! … Winning! MAGA! …

Stop comparing her to Ginsberg.

I wonder how much longer humans will have to keep dying simply because of the myths of our much less enlightened ancestors.

Roberts needs to stop going by his feelings and start following the constitution. JudgeRobertsIsADisgrace

As it was with the Hobby Lobby decision: my religion trumps your health.

She should be removed due to Trump’s and Congress’ illegal action. I look forward changing the numbers in January

I am not religous but I stand with ALL religons to FREELY assemble as quaranteed by our great Constitution. Justice Barrett was the right pick by POTUS. Chief Justice Roberts is showing his true colors by following orders by the Bush's because they hate realDonaldTrump

There is hope

States rights. Pass local laws requiring superspreader events to carry insurance for those they get sick. That includes churches.

Go ahead and attend church, and exercise your freedom to get sick. Just stay out of the overburdened hospitals when you come down with Covid-19. And remember Amy Comey Barret when you're gasping for breath.

Where’s the science?

I wonder if shes a russian spy and how many russians spys the republicans have appointed...

Hooray for the glorious ACB!

Good now put him in prison for mass murder.

This is so stupid. It’s the politics of religion. A temporary requirement shouldn’t be such a big deal.

She does not care about the safety of Americans NotQualifiedToJudge

Religious Leaders must be better caretaker of your health than Health Professionals ?

I think of healthcare workers who are mandated to help ALL people -- regardless of their personal choices to either abate the spread of COVID or intentionally participate in activities that risk spreading the virus and in turn jeopardize the safety of healthcare workers. selfish

Get rid of Roberts!!! We need TERM LIMITS in all of government including THE SUPREME COURT!!!!!

Finally

Thin the heard...

Love her🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Absolutely shameful during a pandemic.

Stupid ass

TAX CHURCHES

I keep being reminded they all say 'its in God's hands' So please stay away from hospitals and let God take you as you believe.

God bless President Trump.

Awesome news for Thanksgiving. Freedom wins!

🤮

finally justice

and so it starts...the religious 'conservatives' have taken over

It's probably the only people that gather in groups that the Democrats can control, the elderly and religious. Hopefully this will keep the anti-religion Democrats out of the religion business.

Just more sick and dead people. God won’t save you from the virus. Don’t complain when your family members die.

That is amazing news. She’s doing a favor for more liberal democrats who will stay alive and healthy.The sooner these worshippers go, the sooner we can say Biden 2024 😂

That’s what happens when you stack the court. And in this case, more people will die.

Robert's is already brainwashed by the liberal media.

They should be responsible for the deaths this causes

President JoeBiden must pack the court, the pandemic is still with us and these supreme court ignorants have no decency to save human lives.... Guess they don't care PackTheCourt

This is the Trump-McConnell legacy. An ultra-conservative court that will continue to dismantle America for decades to come.

ACB rocks!

How is this pro-life?

Another Win for Religious liberty

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Gee i wonder why. The scotus is a patsy

Freedoms are not unlimited! One would think a national pandemic would curtail large groups , no matter what the reason! This ruling will likely mean more people will die.

Thanks President Trump

She is awful

Darwinism and all that. If people believe that going to church is more important than their health, what can you do? Their choice.

Religion and believing in a guy in the sky is one of the most insane mental issues EVER! Amazing that many still believe this fairy tale story and actually think praying does anything.

》Victoria Australia Population 6.359,000 JULY: - New Cases surged to 700 a day WHAT VIC GOVT DID? ▶️ lock down▶️mandatory masks▶️limit home gathering▶️ 5 km limit ▶️ Vics stuck to rules to save lives NOVEMBER: 27 days in a row 0️⃣ New Cases 0️⃣ Deaths Economy ⬆️ People 🙂

I think it’s interesting how Trump gets all the blame for the virus that the whole world is dealing with and learning how to slow it down! We will have a vaccine soon bcs of Trumps actions to fast track/remove the obstacles but the libs still won’t give him any credit! I will!

Fantastic. The religious zealots of the secular state worshipping leftists have been dealt a blow.

Pro life! 😝😝😝😝😝😝😝

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️judge Amy

All in the name of The Lord, whichever Lord that may be! Selfish, ignorant and stupid. So I guess 'I am my brother's keeper' is all bullshit when it comes to SCOTUS.

There is a really easy mitigation of the church issue. Just require the same rules applying to retail trade. Attendees must wear mask, and family groups must sit 6’ apart. The constitution does not say religious freedom includes freedom to kill.

It’s the virus , stupid. Crowds kill.

We should call it a protest, then all the libs would be ok with it! It’s a constitutional right !

Blame her if you get covid19.

This is unconscionable on the part of the court. The five who voted against protecting the health of citizens should resign immediately, beginning with Amy Coney Barrett.

Singapore has totally closed churches, mosques and temples for religious gatherings for months and after that allowed restricted opening. Singapore has single-digit daily cases if any at all. The US is the worst-hit country globally and allows unrestricted religious gatherings.

AmyCovidBarrett Shameful when lives are at stake. If it’s proven that people irresponsibly attending crowded services contracted Covid and then fatally infected someone else, those ppl should be prosecuted for negligent homicide.

Thank you!! There is still a branch of government that works!!

Religious freedom to worship in church prevails just like freedom to protest which was never attempted to stop.

Awesome

Once again this right leaning Supreme Court placed politics ahead of saving lives. When you consider the character of this soon to be gone president and the people he nominated for the courts, it’s easy to see why!

🤬

You go girl

Nice! Thank god for ACB!

GOD BLESS ACB

They know the law, but no common sense at all. Health and safety of the American people trumps stupid laws. Freedom of religious assembly to infect people. Outrageous!

People upset with the first amendment.

God Bless You Conservative Judges! You respect the Constitution, and care for your country more than the others. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

SCOTUS Have become the Grim Reaper.,

By principle, the SCOTUS rulings must be accepted & respected. These 5 justices though have now blood in their hands by prioritizing the rights of some to pray to their imaginary friend over the right of the society in general to sustainable healthcare services

Time will prove all of them to be very wrong.

Thank God President Trump put people on the Supreme Court who understand what the Constitution stands for.

The best thing to happen to our supreme court since its founding.

I would embrace religious freedom if they kept out of fucking politics. Why is separation of church and state a one way street?

She is wreckless with people’s health and safety. Suppose for her it’s ok to die for God.

Roberts - -0 Cony Barrett - 100

All these people will be flocking back to religious services, mostly without wearing masks, will spread the virus. Have fun!

Of course they did. Faux Christianity over Life. Big slap in the face to all medical personnel and essential workers.

God Bless and Protect them!!

Christianity is a death cult in any event. Why prevent them from speeding up the process?

So, because some people need to sit together and mumble stone age incantations we will spread death through our population. Are you alright with this?

Yep welcome Trumps judges.. stacked crooks,..

This is great news. God Bless The United States of America

God bless Saint Barrett.

Amy Comey Barret my intellectual hero!

She wasted no time.

What happens when somebodies religious freedoms steps on others inalienable rights?

Pro birth, not pro life. The Republican way.

Sad

If you say that you have the right to protest,loot burn cities then you have the same rights of religion. Stop Antifa and BLM protests and riots. Then worry about peaceful religious protests.

If there was ever a time to be together and pray for God’s intervention, it is now! Let’s not go back into hiding to pray and receive the strength of the Holly Spirit!

That's a great sign MAGA

So much for Roe V Wade.. You guys are screwed by letting this whack job thru!

What the hell happened to Separation of church and State?! She showed her hand first chance she got. You are NOT required to be in a church for prayer or to worship. This is asinine. Sure, give more stupid people a reason to spread the virus. Disgusting.

Shes a vile woman, to put religion above the rules to contain the virus . Stack the court , take religion out of politics or tax them to death

It is a public health issue. These are not permanent.

I really hope Roberts resigns to let Biden pick a Supreme Court justice. That way we won’t have to get consistently surprised at him being an liberal.

Hey Supreme Court dipshits! This is not a religious or political issue. This is a health issue and the recommendations of medical experts should inform you, not a bunch of ninnies who think some invisible force is going to protect them during a pandemic. The court sucks as usual.

AmyCovidBarrett

Do you mean that Republicans can go to Church and mass spreading Trump rallies anytime they want? Of course, go. I’ll pray for you and watch TV safe at home. You know how this will affect you on the next election? Right?

Thank God for ACB.

The court has valued individual freedom over public safety. Scotus

She’s the best

It should be considered a conflict of interest for churches to be exempt from following public health imposed limitations. If anyone is going to benefit/profit off of the deaths of their congregation, it would be the church itself!! ConflictOfInterest Disgraceful

The governor said it doesn't matter meaning what? People get arrested and told to take up their grievance with the Supreme Court. Nipple ring man needs to respect the judicial branch of our country.

Supreme Court is just another right-wing organization that is partisan hacks.

I can’t believe a 5-4 vote. Must have atheist on the bench

If SCOTUS wants to allow religious sects to not abide mandates or Laws, those sects should be forced to fully embrace the public square and pay their share of the taxation. This would support the community, public tax based!

So much pro-life 😂😂😂😂😂

Now , all the governors need to pay attention. You can’t control the will of the people or we will remove you .

Disgraceful

Great ! more religious people will die. Gods will ?

Congratulations, SCOTUS, you have just given birth to a theocracy.

We really need to look at the 4 Justices that voted against our Constitution.

Love this. Now we see which way the wind blows with the new Court. Question: Can the Supreme Court be sued if the churches become Covid19 super spreaders and people die because of this poorly considered order? Individually or as a body? Guaranteed they will spread it.

Great, FANTASTIC EXAMPLE FOR THE WORLD. You guys are killing it! (Hint, sarcasm)

Wake up America, thanks Amy, for contributing to the paramedic deaths by your vote against reimposing limits on religious gatherings. Years from now, Amy , you can tell your kids , mommy assisted in coranavirus deaths. A proud Mom, how sad.

Yea but she’s all about saving “unborn children”. Living people can go ahead and die for the sake of praising god.

Good.

Welcome to her world. And the fall of the Supreme Court begins.

Does this mean individuals can now sue religious organizations for getting sick (i.e., since the State is not responsible, it cannot be sued; since religious organizations are responsible, they can be sued)?

Pro life ..... pro assault rifles for everyone ...... pro mass groupings during pandemic...... as an Australian now living basically Covid free due to measures based in science ,I’m pretty sure we all agree that you have one very disturbed woman as your new arbiter of justice

Thank GOD we have Trump for Supreme Count to over rule libturd, rino Roberts. I thought religious freedom is in the constitution but Roberts believe a governor can override the constitution...

Responsible religious organizations will still wear masks, social distance, and avoid large crowds. Irresponsible ones will face the consequences of their irresponsibility.

YES !

A lot of religious nuts are going to die...so what, except they will kill a lot of normal people along with them. Their mythical leader once said 'Thou shalt not kill.'

Lock her up

I thought that was a decision of the church, pastors and councils, but not the goverment.

Super spreader events/church fundraisers. One way to reduce the number of fanatics in a few months, I guess.

Create an administrative process to have these religious nutters sign a waiver forfeit state-sponsored medical & employment relief. Belief in what you want, just don’t ask for ‘socialism.’ This is national security, public safety and security SenateGOP senatemajldr

Sounds like her beliefs are getting in the way of her rulings.

The important point here is the constitution prevails, but I believe these congregations should of their own free will not meet, or take measures to insure social distancing is followed. This virus will pass.

I pray every night ... at home. I’m certain that God hears me.

Bad decision. Bad for states' rights. The mistake Governor Cuomo made was being specific about religious gatherings. He should go back and change the edict to be general for all gatherings over a certain number of people. The SC got him on a technicality. Pathetic!🚫🇺🇲⚖️🚫📜😷🦃

Notice which justice’s picture the media had to use for their headline. To make sure anyone against the ruling would be sure to blame her and only her. So stupid.

AOC has blood on her hands. That's right. God will forgive her. If there is a God.

And here we go! Religion trumps local, state and national health. This is the beginning of what will undoubtedly be a litany of religious rulings that place superstition above reason and sanity. Religious entitlements like these are counterproductive in so many ways.

Your only defense from this is to refrain from attending church and avoiding people that are attending church. That is, assuming you enjoy life and want to see your grandchildren grow up.

BananaRepublic

Biden should add 2 more seats and definitely add term limits.

Pro life , my ass! They just sign multiple dead warrants. Fuck right wingers.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett — death 2 - life 0

Even it up. Contract Covid at Church? Easy. Go back and pray for a cure.

Cruella Deville in action already!! 💩🤬🤮

Nothing to worry, soon there will be over 30 supreme court judges after the rule change.

Who are those 4 justices that can’t read ? The constitution is very clear when it comes to religion !!

It’s all political even though 🍊 lost already. Oh well. Keep killing minorities with Covid. That is what they want anyway.

As I understand this, it doesn't mean they cannot impose restrictions on churches, just that they cannot impose more strict restrictions on churches than other gatherings. NY will just implement restrictions on all community gatherings including churches.

She is the future Chief Justice

Crowded churches during a pandemic is not God fearing . It’s stupidity .

She is just, trying to remind us how well (absolutely Not) qualified for this position.

As we now see the future where any abortions rights slip away. SCOTUS needs term limits and add more judges. It's a political court and no longer what the Constitution intended. We need an Amendment.

YES! Go Amy! 😊 it’s our RIGHT!

They are friends with the Grim Reaper

You have a 'right' to have/practice a religion. You neither have a 'right', nor do you require a specific building. Posing limits on groups does not encroach on your right to assembly either. You can still assemble, just in smaller groups. THINK of a work around. SMDH

Extra dumb.

AmyCovidBarrett is pro-death

We are all religious fanatics now.

What happened to the separation between church & state or better yet public safety.. I wish all these people ruining the party would secede they are completely opposite of American they are off some Confederate BS .. & they are holding America back;they aren’t even the majority

Religions have always been basically self destructive and self indulgent. Why change now?

Ridiculous.....

and she's just getting warmed up. The next 30 years of nonsense decisions are gonna be a hoot.

This will be an interesting test of the church's claims that they can gather safely and their members will responsibly protect themselves from a pandemic virus, without State intervention. Hope the church members are smarter than their leaders.

That women is the death of the courts

God bless the 5 members of the Supreme Court who understand what the Constitution means, and what Democracy means, individual rights.

Thank you President Trump

Idiots. The constitution makes no mention about where you choose to express your religious freedoms. Only that you have a right to do so as you please. So their decision makes no sense

No surprise there. And if people die after congregating at religious services they’ll have their faith that they will be going to paradise in an after life.

Obviously they havs to put ACB photo loool i hope you leftist a scared we will take our country back once we did y'all nazis are going to prison for good ✌✌😂😂

Amy Coney Barrett ❤️

👎

The future with Amy Cormpy Bonnet.

And so it begins....They should bar all those who get sick from COVID-19 from hospitals period. Let their God heal them!!!

The gop hates democracy. What the last weeks have taught us is that any vote for any republican at any level is a vote to destroy democracy.

You guys in US have a problem. You have leaders who think 'God' comes before humans. If your so called God really exists, he doesn’t need you to go to a specific place to worship him. Don’t even have to use Zoom.

and the crazy, imo, religious nut on the court with little experience gives a win to religion over law!!

The holy Roman Empire is back. Exorcism to cure Covid-19 and confessions in lieu of admissions of guilt next.

My home is gods temple. Churches are shrines to worship at.

Thank God

Republicans are tired of being Borked, about time the liberals start being Barretted.

Reading this opinion our country is definitely heading for another civil war

If it wasn't for those dark kids and their pesky Condtitution...

The Supreme court for Church people?

We shouldn’t even be here. This has nothing to do with religion it has to do with pride. If every individual would look up humility and how important it is right now we wouldn’t need this sham of a Supreme Court to rule on anything.

Thank God we got 3 justices in.

Then the US is going to have the virus forever even with a vaccine youll be the only infected population on earth.

Well she lived down to the expectations.

Wat do you do with a judge who doesn’t think about the living but the unborn children''?

Any Justice that voted against this, is anti American, and needs to be thrown off the bench!! Just goes to show, how the left is going to use those clowns for their agenda, not for the American citizens. This applies to all religions not just one. Don’t be fooled by the left.

True religion is in your heart. Church, temples, etc are buildings where like minded religions socially gather.

I love the Constitution and it’s defenders♥️🙏🏻♥️

My friend's father passed away yesterday from Covid-19. He caught it at Church, about 3 weeks ago.

Robert's neutralized

Just another proof that Roberts isn’t a conservative and the real split in the SCOTUS is 5/4 not 6/3

Now if they would just require all these church super spreaders, they don't get the same medical care when they're dying. In a way I'm kind of happy about this, because it's definitely going to thin this pathetic heard! Hopefully these justices go to one of these churches!

So it begins. Fascist activist judges are here to ruin America.

Ridiculous. When judges start following 'feelings' and not facts. All will suffer. If religious institutions want to be treated 'like a business' in the words of Judge Gorsuch, then let them also pay taxes, and take legal responsibility for any resultant impact.

Thank you ACB for standing up against Andrew Cuomo’s anti Semitism.

I knew she would be trash! See! TRASH!

Are you f****** surprised?

Time to remove the tax exemption status for religious institutions. If the government can't set regulations then maybe they also need to fend for their own utilities, water, sewer, electric and waste removal.

How many more must die?

Priest: God is everywhere, He is everything, He is omnipresent Capitalism: You must come to church to pray to God and make donations... 😏

Send the partisan hack back to Norte Dame.

As if a shift in a conservative direction by the Supreme Court is a bad thing! It’s not and I love seeing you guys getting worked up over it. Because there is nothing you can do to stop it. You are powerless. And that is a really good thing.

Welcome to Tammy Museum slavery oh yeah this is Germany all over again

Im Catholic. Selfish ruling. Collection plate is Houses of Worship priority. Demanding to be open to huge crowds during infectious covid pandemic.Partisan💰 SCOTUS decision cancels preserving life. Purposefully cancels health/universal precautions/public safety. Not prolife💰

Great job Amy

Cuomo gets slapped down on Thanksgiving !

And so it begins.......

Complete disregard for people’s lives and healthcare workers and systems.

Good justice Roberts isn't a real republican or conservative

This is pro lifers you all!

So laws over public safety health are secondary to religious freedoms. One can now argue drinking as a part of a 'religion' overrules DUI laws. Hopefully common sense overules SC rulings that are NOT.

Let those pple create church hospitals for them to die in since religion is more important protecting lives through science

Right to religion but not a right to life?

Jesus said to be NOT like those whose show off their faith, but rather pray to the lord in secret. Why have the people followed other people and not the book? A faithless generation begs to be tried

Look at all the people working in big chain stores. Don't hear about their people getting sick now do we?

coronavirus is like...

This all stems from the Hasidic Jews in New York wanting to congregate...... as far as I'm concerned fuck them let them extinguish themselves with covid 👍

Preventing gatherings does NOT violate the Constitution. No one is taking away anyone’s freedom of religion. You don’t need to be in a Church, or large group, to practice your faith. We are all making sacrifices for the good of our Country and fellow man.

ArcalaLourdez Is this part of the Doctrine of Discovery, where Christians have the right to infect indigenous populations with deadly disease? Perfect timing with Thanksgiving

SCOTUS is now a political entity enforcing a theocratic agenda.

Trump said the states were responsible for their own Covid solutions but then the govt is taking away states rights re covid. Just another of the hypocritical actions of Trumps “reign

Religion and ideology would be neck and neck in the race to cause the most human suffering and death...if they weren’t riding the same horse.

Should have been 9-0.

Going down

What law did the 4 site as New York being able to do this? Insanity

Pro life when it suits them

I am thankful for ACB

It begins!!! The Federalist Soc,, McConnell, & Trump packed the SCOTUS w/ rightwingers to violate the Constitutional separation of church & state, ensure unchecked corporate power & corporate ‘personhood’ & limit regulations re health, safety & the environment for many decades.

“Pro life party”

You know what. Fuck it. Cull the herd. This is Darwinism at work.

No one is taking away freedom of religion. It just need to be done in a different way, like all other gatherings, to stop the spread of this virus. If kids need to remote learn, they can remote worship. People are dying every day. Stop making it personal.

Dying for Christ! Any woman can and should do it. Why it's as easy as acb

Does this decision comfort you-I favor religious freedom but does it “trump” public health and safety.

Because religious idiots need to gather.

Thanks

The last time the Christians (Catholics) held so much 'political' power...the Crusades & Inquisitions followed.. ..BUT MainStreet must seek Bankruptcy protection while waiting for Congress/Treasury/Fed to award PPP stimulus relief.

Republicans won’t be happy until we have a king/Christian religious figure as president. That has been their real goal for a very long time.

Religious privilege. The supreme court is officially compromised by religious fundamentalists.

It would be nice to hear argument for and against.

Charge them with negligent homicide when more die by this asinine ruling.

Are they going to reverse vehicle seatbelt laws?

The covid19 deaths will be on the 5 Justices hands!

When we put stupid people on the court, stupid decisions will come out... GIGO

Let them gather to get right with God before Covid lets them meet in person.

You know how many in the US have died of covid, .000757 of people.

Who cares? Impose it anyway. This court is part of America anymore. It’s a sharia wannabe.

...and so it begins. There goes womens rights...

txbookliberal Perfect example of the law’s rigidity by defying the common sense and scientific reality that death will likely ensue.

Religious Effing zealots have no place on the Supreme Court.

If only the people who became infected at religious gatherings did not then infect others who are avoiding all gatherings - religious or otherwise - this SCOTUS ruling might be OK. As is, reflects total indifference to well being of the innocent “rest of us.”

ILLOGICAL. If faith services are held OVER VIDEO, how many fewer families need say their final goodbyes to hospitalized loved ones OVER VIDEO? Jeopardize a whole community's public health for the recognition of the religious rights of a few walking the grocery store among them.

Great, it’s now Passover every Sunday.

Should've been 9-0

She's so pro life.

Stepford Wife showing her true colors. typical

Death is a risk worth taking to spout religious bulls*it for Coney Barrett, apparently.

So religious Americans are now free to die thanks to this ruling. God isn't paying attention. Countless religious Americans have died no doubt. Wear a mask. Socially distance. Stay safe. 😷

These are Pyrrhic victories for the religious, all it does in the end is drive people to despise religion and the people who practice them.

Good!

So the rest of us have to suffer because some idiots have to congregate in large groups risking us all to their supper spreader events. No one is restricting religious their freedom just because they can’t go to church. Selfish idiots all of them.

😡😡

You know, I’m kinda to the point of just let them all die.

Religious people, especially evangelicals, should be encouraged to gather as much as they can. Small, unventilated buildings buildings are also encouraged.

Americans are just too damn stupid to even protect themselves their families and others from being infected by a deadly when..When covid kills any of or people they’ve infected wonder if this will please them. You have the right to die but not take others with you

A travesty 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠

Let them go to church and give each other Covid19. The future will belong to us atheists.

President Trump, this is too much. You will still be winning for the next 40 years.

Good!

God Bless You & YourFamily This Thanksgiving. 🙏♥️

so much for republicans states rights notsurprised HandmaidAmy

constitution at least its not all forgotten

Christ. Its not about religious liberty you fools. Its a response to a pandemic. Because people are stupid enough that they need to be told by someone else to avoid large gatherings or wear masks.

So, it looks like we'll have to use common sense, people, which means nearly half of us will probably die.

connielipnick I say we all show up at Amy coat hanger’s house for a party 🤔 do you think she would mind?

I’m sorry, they voted FOR super spreader events especially when HER White House gathering gave so many people the virus? I’m confused🤦🏽‍♀️

Welcome to American Sharia!

THIS Is A HUGE Problem!

So it okay now for 7000 people to congrats for a super-spreader wedding then go out and spread it to the rest of the community all in the name of religion? This will never end.

What the hell is wrong with these people Namely Amy COVID Barrett

Fuck NYGovCuomo

It must be tiring for DEmocrats to keep destroying our country. But we have Trump and 5-4 Scotus. Come 2022 - the House should be rocking w/ conservatives.

Any deaths that occur from religious gatherings will in part be their fault

The constitution doesn’t have a “pandemic clause” when it comes to religious freedom. People may not like it, but the correct decision was made.

God bless ACB

Thank God we had President Trump.I couldn't imagine if Hillary was able to pick judges.

So the dangerous stupidity begins, health concerns should trump religious gatherings all the time, when all are death no chance for them anymore, why is so hard to understand?

Didn’t take long for Barrett to be pro-death and support Trump!

If money could be wasted on a stupid parade that is no necessary in these times , let the people pray.

Amy Covid Barrett

Nice to have a court give a decision any third-grader should give regarding the first amendment.

Wisdom and constitutional rights of all USA citizens prevails

Remove ACB

COVID-19 is showing us Darwinism at work. It’s thinning out the, selfish, the ignorant, the stupid, the careless and the vindictive. Perhaps this is a good thing.

How did this have 4 dissents? Bruh

And my friends healthy husband died in 3 days after catching covid at church....religion over life?

Religion is poison and should be nowhere near any of our laws. So now they have the “freedom“ to discriminate and infect people with a deadly disease. All because of a made up story to keep you afraid and in line. Unless you’re one of the ones “god“ tells to go out and kill. lol

The Court in the hands of fanatics

That's great. Justice comes back.

Pro-life Barrett votes in favor of super-spreader events. Because religion has nothing to do with considering the lives of others.

The judge who is against religions, against normal human life will not be fair, because he is fundamentally unnatural and contradicts even norms.

I thought the court was forever changed conservative and all votes would be 6-3 or worse. I guess the truth is ABC is balance to the court

Obama’s edict:”You can worship- (only) in A CHURCH. If you worship in a home, the Police will come and Disband you! No proselytizing on the Streets/ in a classroom nor public place”

I wonder how they feel about Satanists benefitting from their finding?

They promote super spreader events. Those churches should be responsible for any outbreaks. Responsible to cover all hospital treatment/bill for all attending people and for people that will get sick from those cult members.

There isn’t a more hypocritical institution out there than the church , against abortions and is supposed to be pro life but ok to gather during a virus to continue to spread and possibly kill those who attend . So at what point is life really important to the church ?

Sooo we can once and for all drop references to CJ Roberts being part of the 'conservative' wing of SCOTUS, right? That ship has sailed. Many Dems who said in 2005 he would destroy the republic would have egg on their faces if we replayed their predictions today.

Political activists should not sit in seats of judgement. The Supreme Court just validated the Jonestown Cult massacre, the Branch Davidians and every other cooky group bent on group suicide

We should all send our covid bills to the Supreme Court!

It's not just amycovidbarrett, it's Alito, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Thomas. Churches don't pay taxes which will inevitably pay for this pandemic. People don't need a specific 'house' to worship, would they have ruled the same way for gyms?

So many people on here that disagree with the ruling. Amazing how many people don’t value their freedom. If you want to gather for thanksgiving do it. If you don’t want to don’t. It’s that simple, live free as long as you can.

'Over 2,000 dying a day, but please feel free to gather in large groups to worship the fantastical deity of your choice' ~ Amy COVID Barrett BREAKING News: the Plague doesn't believe in your Gods.

Republicans just can't seem to understand separation of church and state. Elected officials have to think of the well-being of the state as a whole; religion is not vital. But i do agree that closing some businesses & not others can be confusing. There needs to be uniform policy

If we can hold the Senate, they can't pack the court. Between the Senate and supreme court we can limit the damage. Re take the house in 2 years. There is hope! Trump 2024!

Amy, u know? Nothing more than Life.

If you’re stupid enough to go to a crowded church with no mask requirement/enforcement can an employer fire you? For knowingly creating a work environment that’s potentially fatal or could cause serious harm? OSHA_DOL General Duty Clause could be used to say yes they must.

How is this a sustainable decision? It’s like the equivalent of letting cults commit mass suicide and prohibiting the state from doing anything to stop it

Religiously conservative justices support conservative religious institutions wanting freedom to spread disease in a pandemic. Overturning recent Supreme Court decision. Not shocking at all. Justice in America is most definitely NOT blind.

Covid19 kindly thanks the supreme court for doing its bidding. It's almost like there's a higher power at work.

Religion is a way to control people, and make money!

Their “god” will save them! 😂

Pro-death court

The most alarming part of this is that 4 SCJ’s ruled AGAINST the Constitution, that of which they are sworn to uphold.

Thank you B.... F all Cuomos

Pack the Court

NY state should appeal to God to strike down that decision, subject to this condition- if God does not respond in person within 48 hrs we will take that non response as a sign that God disagrees with the SCOTUS decision 😷

Go ahead and get that COVID, then. You'll get exactly zero sympathy from me.

WoW thanks for making it easier to spread a deadly virus that is sickening and killing hundreds of thousands.

So much for separation of church and science, might as well shitcan the vaccines as scotus won’t require it to be compulsory as they will say science doesn’t matter

🚨Double Kraken💥 SidneyPowell former Federal Prosecutor, has filed TWO bombshell Federal lawsuits (GA & MI) alleging massive election fraud against Trump in election 2020. VISIT www dot defend the republic dot org GEORGIA FILING 🚨 MICHIGAN FILING🚨 Happy Tgiving!

“Churches” need to start paying taxes!

There should be limits and guidelines to follow, but consistent ones across all industries and businesses.

We have drive in church and we are going to do it all winter long, ❄️❄️❄️ because we believe in keeping each other safe and helping our health care providers!!

Just add a new screening question: Have you attended a religious service in the last 4 days?

patrickmajor56 Forgive me if I sound cynical but perhaps they aren’t wrong to leave this one to Darwin? Evolution & viruses know no party, they merely select for opportunities to improve the species...or eliminate the foolish & reckless. It’s like walking into a wasp’s nest without a bee-suit:

This is what happens when you replace ACB with RBG. people will die.

These establishments need licenses to operate in NY, revoke the goddamn things and don’t allow home processor exemptions amycovidbarrett

Perfect. That's who Covid-19 is for.

Robert’s is deep state liberal

This Bih.

But going to Walmart or a social justice rally is totally fine though.

stupid crunt. Illegitimate appointee. Maybe she got grabbed by her Puss and Bloatus just started kissing her and she supplanted.

1. If you hate religious people, why dont't you allow them to kill themselves at religious gatherings. 2. Let the covid ignorant mingle outside with each other and continue making money and grow the economy while the covid afraid stay at home. 3. Those who are fearful stay home.

So what we are saying is, we don’t care if we overrun our health care system.

Let the god fearing minions give each other Covid , if they give it to you it’s your fault . Religion has been killing and raping for centuries give em space

The Supreme Court justice condemned COVID-19 restrictions, marriage equality, abortion rights, and five sitting Democratic senators. via slate TermLimitsforFederalJudges SCOTUS

Religious dummies..

LICENSE TO KILL AMERICANS IGNORE FEDERAL GUIDELINES REGARDING INDOOR GATHERING FOR AMERICANS . SCOTUS IS ANTI SCIENCE AND LIVING IN THE DARK AGES. TAKE DOWN SCOTUS AMERICA-CANNOT BE DESTROYED BY A BACKWARDS THINKING SCOTUS.

Thank you 'Justices 4' “Justices of this Court play a deadly game in second guessing the expert judgment of health officials about the environments in which a contagious virus, now infecting a million Americans each week, spreads most easily.” Justice Sotomayor

Another win for freedom...the tradeoffs need to be decided on the individual level and the level of emergency.

Think you President Trump!!!!!!!

As a religious person. This is sad news. Please don’t take this ruling as a representation of many Christian or other denominations..so many of us understand the gravity of this pandemic and don’t go to church & have them on zoom to protect others.

Whose to say now that the bar around the corner is not a religious gathering place?

“While the pandemic poses many grave challenges, there is no world in which the Constitution tolerates color-coded executive edicts that reopen liquor stores and bike shops but shutter churches, synagogues, and mosques.” Justine Neil Gorsuch, on blocking NY COVID19 Restrictions.

You mean all of the religious judges votes for this? That's a joke!

What a shitstorm.

Good. About time.

Can't wait until they hear the case on the Presidential election, when they vote 5-4 that Joe Biden and the Democrats stole the election and Trump is reelected President of the United States! Who was the conservative that voted with the Dems? Was it Justice Roberts?

if christians don't stand up now; together, it will be too late FOREVER

😷 would be Lot more effective if worn like a helmet 🪖 ⛑

SCOTUS apparently doesn't care about peoples lives, unless it has to do with abortion.

Fuck theocracy and tax the churches.

And this is the same group that's going to be crying nothing's open because of covid-19. For some reason their brains cannot connect the dots.

Do you libs need government to tell you what to do? Let people live life they want to go to church let them we have a right to be free
