So, I am currently reading The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. Most, if not all of you know who he is and what his book is about. I'm not going to try to debate God again, but I am going to bring up a good point that he made.
Dawkins makes note of a few instances in which he felt that "Freedom of Religion" has gone too far; including the use of pot in a certain church in New Mexico because they felt that the high connected them closer to God. He also noted instances of students suing their Universities for establishing rules that state that you can't abuse homosexuals. Another instance noted was a 12 year old boy being able to wear a shirt stating "Homosexuality is a sin, Islam is a lie, abortion is murder. Some issues are just black and white!"
I personally believe in what Dawkins is stating, and I believe he phrased his views in a spectacular way:
You can't get away with saying, 'If you stop me from insulting homosexuals it violates my freedom of prejudice.' But you can get away with saying, 'It violates my freedom of religion.'
I just want a view point other than my own because while I have always been pro-every single religion on the planet, I feel a line needs to be drawn in instances like these, because when these people are expressing their right to religion, they are taking away the rights of others.
Anybody got anything to say on the subject?
