…the church is doing “nothing more than following the practices of what biblical churches have done through history.”

Well, exactly. Perhaps she’ll be fitted with a scarlet W for whore, or T for tramp, or F for fornicator.

Or all three, maybe: WTF.

With love in every stitch, of course.

Hard to comphrehend the thought process. Of course, perhaps I give her too much credit.

Isn't it possible for this woman to sue the church for defamation, even if everything they said might be true? I know there is no guarantee of privacy in the Constitution that is explicitly stated, but the church is certainly infringing upon her right to pursue "happiness" so to speak. On the other hand, if more churchs took this course perhaps there would be fewer church goers and therefore less ignorance in the world. Is a church above the law?
