Just think of an electorate of drichs, and why republican politicians behave they way they do becomes clear.  RE: Indiana State Law Still Allows Businesses to Refuse Service Based on Sexuality

So I'm assuming christian business owners will now want to install gaydars in their businesses, because how else will they know? Though it's really not necessary, no gay person will ever want to buy anything from them anyway.
But think about the opportunity! If they're naive enough to believe the bible, surely they'll buy an old vacuum cleaner if you call it a gaydar! Instant profit!  RE: Indiana State Law Still Allows Businesses to Refuse Service Based on Sexuality

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I don't understand how the legal system would decide what is discrimination and what is refusal of service based on a religious belief?

So watching the republicunts cave completely brings us to this:
http://crooksandliars.com/2015/04/indian...ce-changes Quote:The amendment to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act released Thursday prohibits service providers from using the law as a legal defense for refusing to provide services, goods, facilities or accommodations. It also bars discrimination based on race, color, religion, ancestry, age, national origin, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or United States military service. So....what was the point of the law in the first place?  RE: Indiana State Law Still Allows Businesses to Refuse Service Based on Sexuality

I have absolutely no idea. Is it a simple back-track when they've been caught out?

Yes...except all the shithead presidential candidates and wannabes already jumped on the bandwagon and now have to figure out how to get off.
Should be amusing.  RE: Indiana State Law Still Allows Businesses to Refuse Service Based on Sexuality

It'll be easy for them. They'll just claim that they thought this was what the law meant all along.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
