    The insult to my intelligence was uncalled for, and you're still dodging the question. Lots of Muslims believe homosexuality is not only a sin but a punishable offense, are you going to make that guy shoot the gay wedding?

    Hello again, Steve:

    I was wondering what your plan was when other religions start discriminating against Christians... Then I read that the Tea Party believes the 1st Amendment only applies CHRISTIANS...

    That takes care of that, don't it?

    Bwa, ha ha ha ha.

    The insult is thinking I should make anyone do anything. If one guy can't fill my needs I find one who can. I pity the fool who gives me crap about I ain't worthy of his business though. BBB, or Greg Abbott... or both.

    Hell I didn't get mad when a specialist didn't want to take my health insurance either. Found one that did. I did get a bit upset when they bulldozed the woods I grew up in and built houses and street. I adapted. More people should learn too.

    Sure, why not? I'd do it. If you are buying product or services that I offer I'll fulfill my obligations.

    Even the ones you personally seriously object to...

    You would cater a NAMBLA convention if asked?

    I see no reason to go through every single objectionable situation. I'll leave that pointless exercise to you. I'd rather live in the real world. :-)

    No my argument is that states should make no laws that gives excuse or sanction to discrimination of one group of people by another. There are more thoughtful ways one can deal with their circumstance and situation without a law that favors one over another.

    You agreed with me we didn't need such a law in the first place. And yes refusing people goods and services for religious beliefs is discrimination, be it Christian, or Muslim, Jew, or Gay. There is NO difference.

    That's my point, that's my argument. I handle day to day bad behavior with my own device.

    There are numerous examples in your posts over the years in this forum... because I've participated in some of them so I know they exist.

    Just admit to it... you've claimed to be proud to be an atheist... I'm proud to claim I'm not... whats the big deal?

    Or do what all liberals do when cornered...throw up that same tired argument.

    I think that was the problem with the outrage anyway, instead of looking at the bill rationally they just made bad stuff up about it.

    Maybe this was the one smoothy was remembering.: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/religi...154276-10.html

    And I make no judgment here about who is right or wrong or who remembers what? I didn't read the very long thread.
