The Indiana House passed a bill that would protect business owners who want to decline service to same sex couples. This is absolutely ridiculous. Freedom of Religion is the freedom to practice ones religion as long as it doesn't harm others. How does this have anything to do with discriminating against same-sex partners similar to how African Americans were treated. I don't know of any religion where you are not allowed to interact with same-sex couples. They may not agree with same-sex couples, but how does that give them the right to discriminate them?
