I was going to stay out of this but after reading your post I could not. You were almost there. I agree if some dude wants to dress like a woman or stick his pecker in another dude, who cares as long as the dude he is sticking it in is agreeing to the action. The part I could not disagree with more is saying places like Hobby Lobby should not be able to discriminate based on their Christian values. A business should be able to do what they want. If you do not like it do not financially support it. The same goes for places like Target that allow dudes that identify as women to use the women's restroom. If people do not like it they can go somewhere else. While we do not have a true free market you still have more than one option. The government needs to stop sticking their noses into everything.

A business is open to the public and could not exist without taxpayers money that supplied the roads built to the business, the electrical and water grid systems, the police and fire services that protect, and numerous other things. Get out of here with that bullshite "businesses can discriminate" bullshite. What if all the Hindu and Muslim owned gas stations (a vast majority of them in the US) refused to sell Christians gas? What if it was your wife or daughter who was about to run out of gas on a long stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere and the one gas stationed was owned by a Muslim and turned her away because she is Christian. You'd be ready to linch the guy and burn his store down.

It's easy to be ok with discrimination when you are not the one being discriminated against and are in the majority.
