That seems to be one of his favorite hobby horses to ride lately. This article is a "you've got to be kidding me" response to that. People are just getting better at telling religious bullies to back the hell off on putting their religious beliefs into everyone's laws, whether it is same-sex marriage, anti-contraceptive laws, Utah's absurd Zion Curtain, now augmented with a Zion Moat, a liquor tax increase, and a new lower blood alcohol level that can be used to beat people into submission. That all was their concept of loosening up the Zion Curtain requirement.

And Dallin doesn't think the MoMo legislature doesn't have enough power. Yeah, right.

I think the large, corporate religions are simply in fear of losing their tax free status. Having to actually be a charitable organization is not part of the Mormon Mission Statement if there even is a decipherable mission statement to Mormonism. Religious Liberty can be translated into meaning tax free status and you have a closer idea of Oak's meaning.

Being at war with religious fundamentalists in the Middle East for the last 15 years has made people less tolerant of religious fundamentalism at home. When fundies like Oaks want a free pass, society says "not so fast" and suddenly the sky is falling.
