Huffington Post: Religious Liberty Pitted Against Gay Rights In Discrimination Lawsuits

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 06:03 AM PDT

NEW YORK (RNS) The rights of religious groups or individuals that object to same-sex marriage continue to clash with those pursued by gay rights advocates. Now, the fight that started at state ballot boxes and in courtrooms has moved to floral shops, bakeries and photo studios.

As churches are concerned about the potential of facing lawsuits, some are changing their bylaws to explicitly reflect their views on traditional man-woman marriage.

A bakery in Gresham, Ore., owned by a Christian family, under investigation by state officials for refusing to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple, decided to close its doors. "This fight is not over," they wrote on a sign in the shop window. "We will continue to stand strong. Your Religious Freedom is becoming not Free anymore."

Huffington Post: Florence's Sacred Art School Seeks Religious Renaissance

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 06:05 AM PDT

FLORENCE, Italy (RNS) Set in a luscious park along the banks of the Arno River, an art school is trying to revive the tradition of sacred art that made this city the artistic capital of the Renaissance.

For centuries, the Roman Catholic Church was by far Italy's most important patron of the arts, commissioning the masterworks of Giotto, Michelangelo and Raphael for its thousands of churches and convents.

Even in today's secularized world, "sacred art is a booming market," said Giorgio Fozzati, the director of Florence's Sacred Art School. He pointed to Koiné, a church art and supplies fair held every two years in Vicenza, which attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world.

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 06:06 AM PDT

Tahera Ahmad delivered a beautiful Quran recitation to open the 50th annual Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) convention on August 30, becoming the very first woman to do so.

ISNA has represented the interests of American Muslims for the last half-century, and holds a moderate Islamic viewpoint. In a congratulatory video message, President Obama applauded ISNA for its service efforts, saying, "Over the last half century, you've upheld the proud legacy of American Muslims' contributions to our national fabric, and this gathering is a testament to that tradition."

Illinois-raised Ahmad is the Associate University Chaplain at Northwestern University as well as a faculty fellow. She has been educated at a number of prestigious schools, including Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt, which is considered the foremost institution in the Muslim world for the study of Islamic law.
