Here’s an interesting question. When two laws conflict, which should courts give precedence to? A state “religious freedom” law, or a municipal ordinance that interferes with a citizen’s acts of religious charity?
Joan Cheever is a professional chef and the founder of Chow Train, a nonprofit that helps feed San Antonio’s homeless population. She recently was cited for serving food from her car, instead of a food truck with a city permit.
She plans to fight the ticket in municipal court by arguing that “under the 1999 Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act, she has a right to serve food to the homeless because she considers it a free exercise of her religion.”
If Jesus showed up today, and turned stones to bread, would He be led away in handcuffs?
