If my religious beliefs dictate that cockroaches are sacred in my restaurant kitchen will my religious liberty be protected?
A reasonable response, IMO, could be "Well, DO your religious beliefs dictate that cockroaches are sacred in your restaurant kitchen, or are you simply making shit up?"

Why can they not stick to real world questions and not wander off into 'what if' territory?  Are they really this stupid/dense?

I would say yes if that belief had been around for over two thousand years.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

your religious rights should be protected if you truly believe that but don't expect to make any money in your sacred cock roach invested restaurant.

The DUmmies are bent out of shape about a bill in Arizona that Jan Brewer has indicated she will veto. It would protect business owners that refuse to cater to faggots if it is against their religious beliefs.  

I wonder if they would support a black business owner for refusing to serve a Klan member ?

So this tard is comparing homosexuals to cockroaches?

This will go over well.

Muzzies believe that homosexuals should be killed too, except on boy Tuesdays.

I'm not seeing the big deal here or what libs can do about it. As a business owner, I have the right to refuse business I don't want. If I don't want to do business with homos, there's no law that can stop me. They have to prove you're doing it for those reasons, which is something not easy to do.

Yes, your right to practice your religion, as you see fit, should be protected.

Your restaurant, on the other hand, will be shut as a health hazard.

If it's a sincerely held belief, then yes.  Do you laugh at Hindus who revere cows?  I'm a Christian, and I don't.

If such is the case, yes.  It's then the choice of the patron as to whether they wish to eat there.
Would DUmbass now sue the public for not patronizing his business?

For someone with such a fancy screen-name, s/h/it, is really stupid.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Well, yeah, so long as you disclose it to your potential customers. I think that kind of religious belief would police itself.

When gays were giving the accept-the-gay-marriage sales pitch to America, they went on and on about how all that they were interested in was loving their same sex partner and not wanting to infringe on other peoples religious rights.  They didn't want to bother anybody, they just didn't want to be strung up on a barbed wire fence and get beat to death for wanting to visit their dying same sex lover in a hospital like any other wife would.  Now that the gays have a little horsepower--same sex marriage laws, courts, Barry, and Holder, etc.--backing them up, they are trying to force people to embrace them.  Go find a gay or other sympathetic baker to bake your wedding cake or a gay photographer to photograph your wedding.  To get America to go along with gay marriage, you promised the religious that you wouldn't force your lifestyle on them.  Now that they have the law on their side, the gentle, loving gays are revealing themselves for what they really are--bring down America leftists.

Very early on it was explained to us how juvenile the slippery slope argument was on whatever front it was used on.

Nowadays I look around and all I can do is shake my head.

I think the thing that we never get is that the ends do justify the means, the memo just came too late.


Edit: misspelling, sorry.
