....This country isn't a theocracy. That means you can discriminate against someone because you think your religion says you should...

Not so. If your religion says blacks are cursed by God...as the Mormons did...you can keep them outta your church but NOT your hotel or pizza parlor.

Rather than face government action and numerous lawsuits, the Mormon prophet had a vision and God told him he had changed His mind. Blacks flocked from miles away to join the Mormon church once they learned they were no longer cursed. There are still long lines at the temple in Salt Lake City.

Even some Jews like Utah Congressman Jason Chaffetz converted from a Jew Democrat to a Mormon Republican. He also became a Teabagger but I don't think God had anything to do wid that.

The instinct of most American presidents would be to halt any type of negotiations at the sight of Iran bombing a mock U.S. aircraft carrier (during “negotiations”) or after hearing its supreme leader call for “death to America” (during negotiations).

But not the obedient Pet BaRock

No one has refused to serve Gays on this thread and if anything it's the Gaystopo that are openly displaying their bigotry and refusing to accept diversity. If you do not believe that we have freedom of conscience, freedom of Religion and freedom of association in the USA, then just say so. We have the freedom to tell you to piss off! Do you think I should be able to demand that you worship Jesus Christ under penalty of losing your business? Give me a break. We are not going to stand for this in a free country!

"This country isn't a theocracy. That means you can discriminate against someone because you think your religion says you should."

You seem to be having a little difficulty expressing yourself. Do you mean "Can" or Can't?

As for discrimination, it's the Gaystapo that are trying to use the government to force people to act against their conscience and sincerely held religious beliefs. That what ISIS does. Convert or Die!
That's the kind of Country you want to live in, is it?
