I guess if her religion called for slaveownership, she'd sue for that too

Funny how when it comes to crap like this, Christofascist zombies have no trouble with trial lawyers:

Ruth Malhotra went to court last month for the right to be intolerant.

Malhotra says her Christian faith compels her to speak out against homosexuality. But the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she's a senior, bans speech that puts down others because of their sexual orientation.

Malhotra sees that as an unacceptable infringement on her right to religious expression. So she's demanding that Georgia Tech revoke its tolerance policy.

With her lawsuit, the 22-year-old student joins a growing campaign to force public schools, state colleges and private workplaces to eliminate policies protecting gays and lesbians from harassment. The religious right aims to overturn a broad range of common tolerance programs: diversity training that promotes acceptance of gays and lesbians, speech codes that ban harsh words against homosexuality, anti-discrimination policies that require college clubs to open their membership to all.

The Rev. Rick Scarborough, a leading evangelical, frames the movement as the civil rights struggle of the 21st century. "Christians," he said, "are going to have to take a stand for the right to be Christian."


So what Scarborough is saying is that to be Christian is to be loudly judgmental of others and to infringe on THEIR rights to be who they are.

Well, at least that's now out in the open -- that conservative Christians really ARE judgmental, narrow-minded, hatemongering assholes.

Now maybe we can stop the charade that they are somehow about God or morality and deal with them in the very gutter in which they reside.
