We who are against religious freedom where it can tell a LGBT person that they can't be served here, and also believes that all Churches should allow LGBT pastors and priests, should also support the extremely conservative and religious Christian running the Atheist society. After all, wouldn't it be discrimination against the Christian if they could not be head of the Atheist society just like the LGBT person could be head of a church?
Hear me out. I am 100% against ALL discrimination where by a person runs a PUBLIC business. That business should never be allowed to "just say no" to a LGBT couple - ever! However, I believe that a place of religious worship, should follow 100% Religious freedom at all cost. I also believe that if a business wants to only cater to non-LGBT, then they should file to be a company that ONLY serves the specific religious people that is of THEIR OWN specific faith. That means that the Bed and Breakfast who doesn't want LGBT in their business, would have to file under their "faith" and then only allow people of their same "faith" in and NO ONE else - including Atheist and Messianic Jews should be allowed. Yes, I too, would be banned. Why? Their "faith" would not be the same as my faith in most cases. I am not a Southern Baptist, Catholic, Conservative Christian, and so on. I am a Messianic Jew who has faced discrimination most times when I walk INTO a so-called Christian Church. Very few are scent free, and even fewer are allergy aware. And those that are allergy aware, normally rent from a "I hate those with allergies" type church.
Also, please do understand that I am against all discrimination no matter what, including the banning of LGBT in Bed and Breakfasts. If they want to have a civil union there, then the owner can simply hire someone else to take over the place for that period of time. And, say a prayer that says something like "Dear Lord God, Jesus Christ who died on a Cross and not a quick growing tree with a rod going across...the God who hated those who aren't holy like He is and wants to kick out of the church everyone who isn't ....the God who hated those not as privileged as I am....I do not condone this union as it is against my faith and belief in you. Please forgive those who do not know what they do. Amen. And then move along. Of course, you, the anti-LGBT, would reword the prayer to your tastes. Just saying. ;)
Personally, every single business I own will allows all people to use it - even those whose faith I am 100% against. Why? I believe that true religious freedom means that everyone should be allowed to believe how they want even if it is against my own faith. However, I am 100% against any religious being forced to change their own faith rules in order to accommodate someone else. Thus, even though they want to have Conservative Christian churches to allow Gay teachers (something I am against forcing a church to do), if this were to pass by law, then that would mean that the LGBT community would be forced to allow that LGBT hater to be a teacher at their meetings and organizations - and even head of their organization. This would be wrong on so many levels! However, I do think that having a Christian who is not racist be forced to be head of the KKK due to religious freedom does not allow discrimination, may be a good thing as the KKK may seen a change away from their hate crap. Just saying. ;)

Sometimes I write in "Devils Advocate" mode just to make a point, or to get you to feel how I really feel, in the only way I know how. Thanks! I'm moderating all comments for this reason.
