I never post here, but I was sitting in the laundromat and this came to me.

If your religion says you cannot serve a GLBT person in your restaurant, your religion is saying that GLBT persons don't deserve to eat.

If your religion says you cannot rent or sell housing to GLBT persons, your religion is saying that GLBT persons don't deserve to have a roof over their heads.

If your religion says you cannot employ a GLBT person, your religion is saying that they can't have a job.

If your religion is saying that, your religion is FUCKED(1) and you need to think very hard about who you're actually worshiping, because Jesus said nothing about this kind of discrimination. He certainly didn't say to go get a law passed to protect you while you discriminate against your fellow GLBT persons in basic life functions.

A scripture reading below the squiggle.

Harry, Harry, Harry, I am so ashamed.

How on earth can you even think that appeasing these anti-mosque people is going to help?

Your office is quoted as saying:

The office of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada issued a statement saying, "The First Amendment protects freedom of religion. Senator Reid respects that, but thinks that the mosque should be built some place else."

Uh, no. What are you going to say, Harry, when some anti-Mormons say, "No, we can't have a Temple here, we don't like your religion." (And yes, there are loads of them out there, they overlap with the people who hate Muslims.)

Seriously, Harry, this is the First Amendment we're talking about here. If you even had half a thought that you might be rescuing the Constitution while it's hanging by a thread, well, you can just think again.
