If a person's religious convictions don't allow them to lend money to certain historically disadvantaged groups, what are the odds that our current Supreme Court would let that person discriminate?
Lending is probably not much different than paying for health insurance that covers PReP or birth control. https://harvardlawreview.org/blog/2023/04/religious-exemptions-are-becoming-the-rule/
It seems like religious "freedom" to discriminate is just around the corner.
Too pessimistic? Is that even possible anymore?
