The ruling doesn't say that you cannot do exactly what you describe. You can still deny the homeless a room if they don't want to listen to your lecture on Calculus or Jesus.
What the ruling says is that you cannot prosecute a person for sleeping on the street if they have nowhere to go, and that a room that comes attached with a lecture about your life choices doesn't count as a place to go.
- xamuel 7y agoIt's a very interesting question. I suppose the logic of the ruling shouldn't be restricted to "official" religions at all. Even in the calculus example, we can imagine there could be homeless people who are religiously opposed to calculus, and I agree that the calculus shelter shouldn't be counted as a place to go, for such people.
