The center of the onion.

I'll do this with as few words as possible because everyone is over it.

There's a layer underneath the freedom of speech/First Amendment issue.

And that is Chick-fil-A donating millions of dollars to /anti/-gay groups that lobby lawmakers.

It's one thing to stand on the side of the pool and either wish I would drown or do nothing should I start to drown.

However, the financial support of these lobbying groups (they can say they're family associations or whatever, but we all know their purpose) is like putting your foot on my head and pushing me underwater until I stop fighting or stop breathing, whichever comes first.

And THAT is my problem with ALL religion.  Eventually, it becomes a way to determine and separate classes of humans, rating some above others for no other reason than a passage in someone's chosen holy book.

It does not matter what you believe.  You can worship Regina George and the Burn Book can be your bible if you want.  You have free will.  Go ahead and do it.  If you're American, you have a constitutional right to do it.

YOUR* beliefs can not and should not arbitrarily condemn what anyone does with other consenting adults behind closed doors.

*"Your" means every single human being on earth.  Clear?

And I'm done.  Back to kittens.
