You didn't differentiate, you just insisted that that some discrimination should be allowed for reasons convenient to your faith. Well, we've seen how people who hold your faith choose to use such a privilege. We're not as impressed with or convinced of it's good virtue as you are.
If a christian baker should be able to use his business as a prop to discriminate on political, moral, or religious grounds...then so to should the white supremacist be able to use his business as a prop to discriminate based on -his- political, moral, or religious grounds. Conveniently, we've seen how that plays out as well.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
