She is a Mama Dragon living in Central Wyoming and, like many of us, is just struggling to survive in a conservative state.  She was raised in a high demand religion and has 3 grown sons.  Her oldest two sons are part of the LGBTQ+ community. Her oldest son faced discrimination and was refused services from a bakery in Colorado based on who he loved, which ultimately led to the famous Supreme Court case of Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. Links from the Show: Information on the Masterpiece Cake case: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/17pdf/16-111_j4el.pdf More on the Supreme Court case: https://www.oyez.org/cases/2017/16-111 Join Mama Dragons today: www.mamadragons.orgIn the Den is made possible by generous donors like you.

Conservatives—and, in particular, Evangelicals—who minimize the importance of President Trump’s judicial appointments betray a naivete about the growing perils to religious liberty in our country today. Too many do not grasp the sheer number of cases on the religious clauses of the First Amendment that have reached the high court in recent years. The Hobby Lobby decision in 2014 and the Masterpiece Cake decision of 2018 are perhaps the highest profile of the enormously important decisions we’ve seen. And the cases keep coming: The court has recently agreed to review decisions by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit on the ability of two Catholic schools in California to operate out of Christian conviction. The answer from the court will be crucial to the future of religious education across the country. For those whose faith is crucial to their lives, the “Trump judges” make all the difference in the world.

Jack Phillips, the owner of Masterpiece Cake shop in Colorado, has become the face of Religious Freedom after last year's Supreme Court ruling in his favor. He'd declined to make a wedding cake for a same sex couple and the case went all the way to the highest court in the land. But a second case was launched against him, one not as well known, but could have been just as devastating. A transgender woman filed a suit against Phillips because he refused to bake a cake celebrating the seventh anniversary of her transition from male to female. This time the Colorado Civil Rights Commission decided to drop the case. But some legal watchers believe this case was a set-up, launched only to make an example of Phillips. Hear what Jack and his attorney, Kristen Waggoner of Alliance Defending Freedom, have to say about this latest victory and the future of these kinds of cases.

Was the Masterpiece Cake Case a good opinion issued by the Supreme Court or a bad opinion- Christians have said both. This sermon takes a definite position. In this opinion, the Court talks a lot about government neutrality. The sermon demonstrates that government being neutral is a myth - it also reveals what the neutrality is designed to accomplish. 44 min.

This week we are joined by Mikey Pullman and talk about Messianic Judaism, why Pride is relevant, renewed gay hate, parents claiming Christianity was on trial, Norway's new burqa ban, and more. Dustin' off the Degree - Messianic Judaism In the 19th century protestant groups in started targeting Jewish communities for evangelism. In 1821 the London Society for promoting Christianity among the Jews published the first Yiddish New Testament. These efforts spread from the UK to Ukraine, the US, and various other places. In the US they had the greatest success with converting Jewish immigrants and created communities that had their worship services on Saturday and mixed Jewish and Christian customs. As a result the gentile leaders of the groups were being accused of being Judaizers by other Christians. This movement picked up steam starting in the 1920s and by the 1940s and 50s Southern Baptist missionaries operating in Israel used the term “messianics” instead of notsrim which translates to Christians from Nazarenes. The modern movement started in the 1960s with young Jewish people converting to Christianity while still being committed to continuing to be culturally Jewish. In response to this increase in interest the Hebrew Christian Alliance of America changed its name to the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America and the group Jews of Jesus started. Like you'll find in most religious groups, it's difficult to nail down the beliefs because of congregation is a little bit different, but: * Most are trinitarian. * All believe that Jesus is the messiah and even the ones who aren't trinitarian believe that he was fathered by the Holy Spirit. * They believe that the Torah, the first five books of the Old Testament, is still in effect and not replaced by Christianity. * They believe that Israel is still God's chosen people and generally do not think that switched to gentile Christians. * They consider the Tanakh, the Jewish scripture, same as the Christian Old Testament, but in a different order, as well as the New Testament to be scripture. * Some accept Jewish oral tradition and the Talmud. * They tend to have the same eschatology as evangelical Christians. * They keep the Jewish holidays and include the celebration of Jesus's death and resurrection as part of Passover. * They follow Jewish dietary rules. Most of the groups actively work to evangelize to Jews, often through handing out leaflets and doing one on one Bible studies. In many congregations, especially outside of Israel, a majority of members are not people of Jewish descent. They are Christians that had to convert to both Judaism and Christianity at the same time to join. Messianic Judaism is generally not considered to be Judaism by anyone, unless you need a token “non-Christian” for a National Day of Prayer event or you're an Adventist middle school teacher trying to make the segment in Bible class about the Sanctuary more interesting by bringing in a “Jewish person”. Many liberal Christians actively and often officially oppose Messianic Judaism as they believe that the Jews have their own covenant with God and Christians don't need to mess with that. Evangelicals, on the other hand, love Messianic Judaism, because they're the Evangelicals that put the Judeo in Judeo-Christian Values. NEWS 'No Gays Allowed': Tennessee store owner puts sign back up after SCOTUS ruling Jeff Amyx, a Baptist pastor and owner of Amyx Hardware & Roofing Supplies from eastern Tennessee was in the news three years ago for his "No Gays Allowed" sign he put up in his store. After getting quite the backlash he replaced it with a sign that read, "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who would violate our rights of freedom of speech & freedom of religion". After the Masterpiece Cake ruling was announced last week, he took that sign down and put his "No Gays Allowed" sign back up. 'Christianity is not on trial': baby custody case pits B....

Trump on Marijuana, prison reform and tariffs, Anthony Bourdain, Masterpiece Cake ruling and more!

The Supreme Court handed down a very dissatisfying ruling in the Masterpiece case on Monday, holding in a 7-2 opinion that: "[t]he Colorado Civil Rights Commission’s actions in assessing a cakeshop owner’s reasons for declining to make a cake for a same-sex couple’s wedding celebration violated the free exercise clause." This ruling, which was narrow in scope, failed to decide the fundamental issue in the case, which had more to do with compelled speech than free exercise. Of course, us libertarians understand that the real fundamental issue here is property rights, and neither compelled speech nor free exercise.
