As noted earlier, this is an article about Great Britain....has nothing to do with the Civil Rights Act.
Mormons discriminate against and refuse temple entry to those members based upon payment of a "full tithe".
Perhaps, religious freedom in Britain has a differing definition than you are espousing.
Your quote: Religious freedom requires allowing a religion to determine what is or is not acceptable behavior....can be taken to mean to allow "freedom" of beheading in Moslem countries.
I understand it is about GB, but I don’t like to see FReepers poo-pooing religious freedom.
And your quote deliberately left out this part of my post: “As long as that rule does not endanger someone or violate an important law (dont cut puppies throats on an altar, for example), it should be allowed.”
I guess honesty isn’t big in your church?
