Choosing among Non-Negotiated Surrender, Negotiated Protection of Liberty and Equality, or Learning and Earning Empathy

Ongoing and potential conflicts between religious liberty and the liberty and equality rights of same-sex couples and the LGBT community are not going to be resolved through constitutional adjudication and statutory interpretation. The hard work of political deliberation is the only way to move forward. The opposing sides of these disputes can choose various approaches to deal with their adversaries. They can reject meaningful dialogue and compromise and continue the conflict until one side obtains sufficient political power to force the other side to accept the victorious side’s dictates. Alternatively, both sides can recognize their profound differences in belief but nonetheless engage in dialogue and negotiations toward the acceptance of mutually acceptable compromises. They can accept that the essence of liberty in a free society is the right to act wrongly in the eyes of others; to worship wrongly, to speak wrongly or to marry wrongly. Finally, there is the aspiration that adherents of traditional religious beliefs and the LGBT community can both develop some degree of empathy and regard for each other.
