After the U.S. Supreme Court recently tossed out a lower court’s decision against our clients Aaron and Melissa Klein — who had been penalized $135,000 by Oregon bureaucrats for refusing to bake a cake with a message that violated their sincerely held religious convictions — one question predominates: Why didn’t the justices just decide the issue?
It’s a fair question and one to which only nine Americans truly know the answer — and they’re not telling. But, we can hazard a guess: State-sanctioned hostility to religion keeps getting in the way.
