James, you wrote that Minnery "seems to be missing a very important point about freedom of religion", and "..laws are there to allow you to practice any religion.. so long as it doesn't impinge on the liberties and pursuit of happiness of another American"; actually you are missing a point about Constitutional rights, that they allow for a balance between opposing camps, that everybody won't always be unoffended, and that this is integral to fair co-existence. Liberties of "another American" don't exclude Christians any more than non-Christians. By your logic why can't I demand a Muslim bakery write "Amir plus Aziz" on a cake, or that PP display posters of aborted babies? Silly, except, for Christians. "Can anyone who would refuse liberty and happiness to another truly be considered a Christian?". While Jesus didn't impose criminal penalties on people for private moral issues (i.e. the woman caught in adultery), he clearly taught that a life spent unrepentant & unforgiven ends in hell.
