I don't make more than passing mention to religion on this board, and I figure it's Dr. Bob's call as to what gets discussed here.
So if you or anyone else thinks this is what I was defending, you are mistaken.
I was defending Lou and the right of anyone to be treated with dignity and respect. That's the issue I was putting myself on the line for. I'm sorry if that wasn't clear from my posts, and I think it is important enough a distinction to make sure it is clear.
