[quote]I explained how it could be realistic in the quote below.[/quote]
A Muslim living in America would not likely discriminate against Christians. If a case like this does erupt however, the Muslim would lose because he has no basis.
[quote]Islam may look down upon other religions but they don't discriminate against them in the U.S. So this scenario is unrealistic.[/quote]
Could it be used as justification for discrimination in the future?
But it is easily defeated due to our minimal Muslim population and one can even say our distaste for them.
[quote][quote]If everyone was forced to give out marriage licenses to homosexuals then it would be denying their freedom to practice religion.[/quote]
Wait, did you just change sides?[/quote]
I didn't. You just misrepresented me by taking a quote out of context.
Accidentally, you genuinely confused me here.
Homosexuality isn't considered a religion.
[quote]What if a clerk decides that he believes that women are unfit to drive based on his religion (some religions are sexist) and decides that he won't issue a driver's license to women?[/quote]
He'd have to have a basis, I've studied the worlds religions, some in depth, some just skimming. And none of them can be manipulated enough to justify this.
[quote]What if the nearby counties have clerks that agree and you have to travel an ridiculously far distance to get a driver's/marriage/whatever license?[/quote]
I'm not sure what the term is....economic conspiracy? Something like that, but it's illegal to do something like that. At that point, you're being malicious, which likely isn't in your religion either and if I was a lawyer, I'd attack that.
[quote]What's preventing a clerk from making a religion where straight marriage is wrong and then consequently discriminating against straight people who want marriage licenses?[/quote]
I argue that's what we'll eventually coming to.
Just kidding don't hate me, I kid, I kid.
Well they'd have to make it big enough to be an official religion and have all the characteristics of an official religion to have people follow behind whoever is the leader.
