It’s right to believe and worship as you see fit. But it's never an excuse to discriminate.”...actually it's an excellent reason to discriminate, using the original historical meaning of the verb, which was to make a choice based on sound and often very subtle qualities - the word has become so perverted, one might say by the perverts, that it is now used to mean choosing based on random or meaningless or invalid alternatives - it's become a word game - by accusing someone of "discriminating" you automatically invalidate the reasons they have given for their choice, since they're not serious reasons by definition - more pernicious manipulation from the left......

Word game = Newspeak (1984).

Right? An Orthodox Jew going out to eat might DISCRIMINATE and choose a kosher restaurant. Gays often discriminate and choose a gay bar to hang in. Discriminate really means choose or prefer. If you choose green salsa over red, it’s not red sauce hatred.
