Religious Zelots

I just heard that a group of religious lunatics in the united states spear to think that their obligations as an employer can and should be modified on the basis of their religious convictions.  This is the United States here folks.  It is not down town Iran where the religious leader get to make law.

I have wondered for a log time why it is that such a populous country has such difficulty with the rest of the world. Now it is obvious. Religious zealots and bigots are the cause of most of the problems of the United States.  What a ludicrous idea.  That as an employer you get not only to dictate the type of health insurance your employees get, but that you think, nay even consider it reasonable, that your employee should have to operate under the weight of your religious conviction is the worst kind of abuse of religion I have ever heard of.

I suppose this same group of old men with such simple and unbending views would consider it ok if their Presbyterian son was required to stop work 4 times a day to turn east and pray, or if their daughter was required by her Cooneyite employer not to cut her hair.

It is all well and good to exemplify religious freedom, but in fact that these gentlemen do not espouse religious freedom. Exactly the reverse in fact.  They espouse compulsory observance of their own religious convictions.  That today their bigotry happens to be aligned is purely an accidental. 

Perhaps the think that the Jehovahs Witness approach of no medical insurance because they don't believe in medical intervention is also correct and perfectly normal. Wake up and smell the roses America.  You being lead to destruction by religious bigots and corporate greed.
