| So Christian businesses who refuse atheists and homosexuals would be okay with you, too? Or is your latitude for religious discrimination reserved only for Muslims?

| The difference is that Catholics and other Christians are not killing anyone to promote their religion nor do we riot in the streets when someone draws a cartoon of Jesus nor do we behead people we disagree with. Except the cab drivers refusing dogs and drunks aren't killing anyone, and the point x... |

| Another good point, and examples, like this: By law, same-sex marriage is taught as equal to traditional marriage in Canada’s public schools. are just dumb - by law, it is equal to 'traditional' marriage in Canada. As far as I'm concerned, if your religion conflicts with your work, you're free t... |

I agree, insofar as religion isn't, to some degree, being afforded the same freedoms to express opinions contrary to popular opinion as are to, say, homosexual advocacy groups.
People can go to far in their push for personal freedom when they start imposing on that of others. |

| One thing that I'd modify is the way links to news stories are handled - it's always opened the news link with a sidebar that shows the news comments on the left, which is fine when you're opening the link from the main news page. When you're clicking on it from the forum, though, you're already vi... |
