Please see post #230. I accidentally posted my response to myself.
Thanks, I would have overlooked it.
I think you are overstating the situation in paragraph 1. All that has been said (at least all I am aware of) is one question from him (to which the answer was yes). He has plenty of statements affirming the freedom of worship for all.
I agree more on your second paragraph. That one concerns me a bit. The jury is still out in my opinion.
