Really?
Which law says that, Bill?
Perhaps I'm a nudist and prefer to be in my house naked. It's my house, you can't refuse to work on my computer (unless you are discriminating against nudists).

Which has been my point all along.
I (and a few others) see no difference in the reasoning behind discriminating for any reason.
Gay, black, Jew, whatever.
It is same old "clasification" of groups of peoples.
That, in & of itself, is wrong.
Becouse who knows WHAT "group" is next?
Me?
You?
Your children?

But it does. It is a matter of 'choice', some would call "rights". It's something I don't HAVE to do; not something I was born with and can't change. It is my CHOICE and you don't have the right to limit my choices because I have the 'right' to go without shoes and shirt if I so chose. If I want to smoke a cigarette, it is my CHOICE.
The reference to POLE smokers was ridiculous and I wasn't talking about you coming into MY house. I was talking about doing business with you in your place of business, where you invited me by hanging a sign and opening the door.[This message has been edited by texasfiero (edited 11-13-2006).]

I believe the romans were almost that progressive but I don't know for sure. I do know the gay lifestyle was VERY much a part of the culture and hermapordites were reveared.

Thats according to my COMPANIES policy.. Myself, I could care less. I suppose I could quit if I felt strongly enough.[This message has been edited by 84Bill (edited 11-13-2006).]

If you don't know then you should say "None that I know of". Then you'd be correct.
There has been NO recorded civilization that has allowed gay MARRIAGE. Homosexuality has been tolerated, but never allowed to be married. Not surprisingly, as the morals of the civilizations changed to accept more deviancies, the civilizations went into decline.
You have a grasp of history, Bill. I know you do. You should have known this. Or did you, and just CHOOSE to not acknowledge it?

So you willingly work for a company that discriminates? Interesting.
