I use the binary rating system.

Ruth Malhotra is suing for the right to to condemn homosexuality at the Georgia Institute of Technology. According to the LA Times, the "Georgia Institute of Technology ... bans speech that puts down others because of their sexual orientation." Ms. Malhotra thinks this is an infringement of her right to the freedom of religion, because Christianity requires Christians to denounce homosexuality.

Its an interesting lawsuit, for the simple matter that discrimination based on sexuality has yet to truly be decided in any state. The courts seem hesitant to put down any cohesive stance on the subject, flip flopping from allowing an Oklahoma student to wear a t-shirt stating "Homosexuality is a sin! Islam is a lie! Abortion is murder!" to justifying Hewlett Packards firing of an employee for posting "Bible verses condemning homosexuality on his cubicle" which "harassed gay employees and made it difficult for the company to meet its goal of attracting a diverse workforce."

Supporters of Ruth Malhotra's lawsuit claim sexuality is a lifestyle choice and therefore shouldn't put speech condemning homosexuality on the same level as a racist condemning a man for being black. Oddly, religion itself is a lifestyle choice, and nearly every religion condemns every other religion as heretical, evil, and just plain wrong. Fortunately, America usually curbs discrimination or speech inciting discrimination against differing religions.

Truthfully, Ruth, and other far right-wing conservatives, miss the true calling of Christianity. She is doing far more to alienate potential followers/believers, than she is convincing everyone of the evils of homosexuality.

Sexuality is a choice which has little impact on the rest of the world. Frankly, its time to move on.
