    It is exempt already in expressly religious institutions, such as a church or parochial school. As for anything outside churches, no, discrimination should not be legal. (Remember, both slavery and Jim Crow laws were based on religion.)

    No. There is no religious right to discriminate against others in any country other than a theocracy.

    No. Civil Rights are for everyone. They are civil NOT religious. Such freedoms prevent the advance of a theocratic state.

    Read your Declaration and see that we are under Nature's God, the Creator who gives all rights. That means homosexuality is not a right.
