This Religious Liberty Discussion on ‘The View’ Might Top Them All – Please Watch
How long can “The View” stay on the air when they continually show how inept they are in understanding basic knowledge about the American political system? All they seem to be able to do is rant about liberal talking points with an anger that they believe is humorous.
Once again the ladies proved that they have no real understanding of both the facts and the United States Constitution. This was glaring as the panel talked about the recent religious liberty case currently before the Supreme Court.
It’s a case in which the state of Colorado claimed that their public accommodation law can force a website designer to make a design for a same-sex wedding. This is certainly compelled speech that is against the designer’s beliefs.
The ladies on “The View” went ballistic in rants that went way over the edge with this case.
Whoopi Goldberg started it all off by declaring that the whole point of the Constitution (we’re guessing that she just meant the First Amendment) is about “freedom from religion.” In other words, you can’t be forced to subscribe to anyone else’s religious beliefs.
She went off on the idea that the web designer at the center of the Supreme Court case is “pooping on my religious freedom.”
She says the Constitution gives us “freedom FROM religion.”
And she asks: “whose religious beliefs are we protecting?”
Can we encourage Whoopi to go back to a Constitution 101 basic course? The First Amendment is about not establishing a state religion. It is also focused on protecting a person’s right to the free exercise of his or her religion.
It is not about “freedom from religion,” which is a progressive slant that is not based on truth. The First Amendment is exactly the reason why graphic designers’ rights should be protected. The Bill of Rights is there to protect everyone in the country from government overreach.
I wish I could say the conversation gets better, but the conversation gets even more insane. You’ll have to watch the clips below and look out because Joy Behar becomes the voice of reason!

Despite the fact doctors would lose their licenses, Whoopi doubles down on her false assertion that Christian doctors are fine with gays dying from a lack of medical treatment.
And she says this is like people saying "I don't want to serve you because you're black." pic.twitter.com/awIy3MNgqv— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022
Racist Sunny Hostin says this is why "there's such little confidence in the court."

Joy Behar pushes back and wonders what if a baker was asked to make a swastika, a racist trope, or homophobic cakes. "Am I compelled to then bake that cake?"
Sunny stammers, arguing "it depends" and says law school taught her the cake MUST be baked. pic.twitter.com/1lgM83sESu— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022
Sara Haines points out that both the web designer and baker serve gay clients, they just disagree with the weddings.
She argues the wedding part makes it different than Whoopi's claim that it's like barring full service based on race. pic.twitter.com/z6S89Lyxd2— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022
Alyssa Farah claims "this one is tough" and calls the web designer a bigot.
"But I'm also against coerced speech" she adds. She wonders what happens if a gay web designer gets commissioned to make an anti-LGBTQ site. But says it's a "slippery slope" to "racial discrimination." pic.twitter.com/8nkBjbN3ym— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022

Whoopi scoffs at people who talk about "freedoms." Says she'll refuse to bake the Nazi cake.
Behar questions what would happen to her legally. Whoopi says she'd be fine because "we collectively don't want to see."
Sara points out this is a private business, not city hall. pic.twitter.com/9sLyM6kfoy— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022
Attacking "the religion problem," Haines denounces all religions because some bad people around the globe use theirs to justify heinous acts "in the name of the untouchable religion."
Sunny agrees, saying "they hide discrimination … within the Bible, under the Bible." pic.twitter.com/K7AjvAnYW9— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) December 6, 2022
"That's what's coming" Whoopi shouts, suggesting SCOTUS is bringing back segregation. She claims they want to say "I don't like your color."
She tells the web designer/baker "get out of service!"
