If the issue is "This Christian school has the right to discriminate" then that's a different question. But let's not do some mental hoop jumping to act like it's not discrimination.
If TheBoost is telling me that I have the right to join the Muslim Brotherhood and that there should be protests if anyone wishes to infringe on that right, then maybe I'm starting to see his point.
Regardless of the laws of the land, my church will never perform homosexual marriages. We have the right to discriminate, just like we can discriminate against marriage with animals (with definable personalities, at least). Such is the nature of freedom.
I think we're in agreement here Endy.
For example. I would never let my son be a Boy Scout, and I tell them to fuck off when I see their organization at the supermarket, but they have the right as a private organization to be prejudiced, discriminatory assholes.
(I also believe the government is justified in limiting the right to be discriminatory cunts in certain cases, like job hiring, housing, lunch counters, etc).
But the BSA admits "We don't like no queers, and don't want no queers around. Praise Jesus." They ADMIT they are discriminatory fucks.
(Although Ender, when finding common ground, it kinda hurts when in one breath you somehow see a parity between gay marriage and marrying animals. Just an FYI)
