Wait a minute... Where are all the Religious Freedom Restoration Act advocates?
If it's against their religion, they should not be forced to do it.
End of discussion.
*yes, I know it's Switzerland not the U.S. but if you truly believe in religious rights, you'd agree.

Now you are against coercion?

[quote]Now you are against coercion?[/quote] How did you come to that conclusion?
-
Show me where other religions can opt out of a public school class based on a religious reason and I'll agree. However, I don't see Christian/Catholic/Jews opting out of some periods of science because evolution is being taught that day.
-
I'm not saying they should be exempt from the class. It isn't against a Muslim's religion to go swimming.

Yet you would be one of the first to attack Christians denying cakes to gays (ignoring Muslims who do the same)... The reason no one cares is because this is Switzerland - one of the most blowover places on the planet besides Ukraine's government and South Dakota

[quote]Yet you would be one of the first to attack Christians denying cakes to gays (ignoring Muslims who do the same)...[/quote] Irrelevant and assumption. I'm not an RFRA advocate. [quote]The reason no one cares is because this is Switzerland[/quote] You completely missed the point.

The irrelevance stems from your OP, not my irrelevant comment in relation to the thread. You made a bait post to flaunt your supposed moral superiority via smugness and you got an observation based on your posting habits and your insistence on "ending muh discrimination" The second part answered your question succinctly. No one give a shit about Swisscheeseland and that's why no one is posting or caring

[quote]The irrelevance stems from your OP, not my irrelevant comment in relation to the thread. You made a bait post to flaunt your supposed moral superiority via smugness and you got an observation based on your posting habits and your insistence on "ending muh discrimination"[/quote] The post has nothing to do with my morality. Since you need it explained to you I'll write it clearly. My post has to do with respecting religious beliefs and governments passing rules/regulations that infringe upon them. That's first amendment stuff so should be the end of the discussion anyway. I mentioned RFRA because there are many people that are proponents of it and I'm targeting those individuals for discussion. The question is, how can you justify being for religious freedom but then want to force a religious group to do something that violates their beliefs? It doesn't matter what I think or believe. I'm asking [i]them[/i] how [i]they[/i] can justify it.

Because your entire post is bait meant to trap people in a pedantic argument in which you will use smugness and pomposity to piss people off. It's pretty obvious that you're posting bait and no, the question isn't meant to start discourse when you are calling out "advocates" You aren't fooling anyone beside newfgs
-
Sure, it most certainly is bait. And maybe I will ridicule them if they can't explain to me how they can justify a contradictory belief. I'm calling them out. I'm looking for an intelligent response. I've obviously hooked you and the best you could do is distract from the actual topic. I'll keep waiting.
-
No, you aren't looking for an intelligent response. You're looking to piss people off with smugness and feigned moral superiority
-
More assumption. And even if that was my intention it doesn't change that you can't answer the question. A legitimate question. Why did you even bother to reply in the first place?
-
Because I recognise a shitpost bait when I see one I've been posting that shit for over 2yrs on this shitty ass forums and so I'm blowing your cover as a troll
-
This site is full of trolls, yourself included. Don't pretend to be self righteous and try to make a stand because of my post. It seems like you are just upset about someone shining a light on some hypocrisy. And I'll stand by that post until someone can explain why it's okay. I admit, I sometimes get rude and mock, but that's mostly with those who are extremely ignorant, deflect, distract and try changing the topic, just like you are.
