Don't discriminate against da gays.

I think y'all are still missing what I was trying to say. I must not have communicated it very well. I am not advocating to force the church to do anything. I'm not advocating for any legal action.

I'm simply pointing out what I see as hypocrisy. "It is so morally objectionable to discriminate based on sexual orientation that there ought to be a law against it *unless you have religious reasons." Is that what the LDS church strives to be? An excuse to discriminate?

Is that what the fine print says? Is that how some are interpreting it? Or is that how you're interpreting it?

I get what you're saying and I don't believe individuals should discriminate. However, I don't blame the church from asking for their ability to discriminate what the institution deems as an immoral lifestyle. BYU should be able to deny employment to a homosexual professor. At least, isn't that what the church is thinking?

OK sure, but why then can I not make the same moral judgements as a non-religious person? If I owned a business(I did for a time) the chirch would have that right stripped from me. The Church is advocating to make it illegal for someone like me to not hire someone because they are gay. Why should I as a common guy be held to a higher moral standard than the church? Which is a massive organization that has way more impact than I could ever hope to.
