“Which is more discriminatory: a private school requiring that its voluntary attendees abide by a code of conduct, or people saying such a school should not exist because that school disagrees with their ideas?”[/quote]

Or C) one group of people saying another group of people shouldn’t exist.  I’ll go with C as most discriminatory.[/quote]

Except “A”never said that about “C”

If I tell you that your heterosexuality is immoral and you have to become gay that is pretty much the equivalent of saying you should not exist as you truly are. If I tell a black man he must be a white woman, that is the equivalent of me saying he shouldn't exist as he truly is.

[b]Conservative Christians don't think gays should exist. Period.[/b] [/quote]

Add SOME Catholics to the mix . . .  and SOME Muslims and SOME Jewish people and so on and so on.  Extremists stick to the literal meaning of any religious text.

So as a liberal (Am I correct in labeling you as such?), shouldn't you be accepting of an extremist's views?  If  conservative Christians wish to form a school, they have every right to do so.  YOU don't have to join.  YOU don't have to believe in their doctrine.  You simply have to accept that they have a right to do so.

Why is this so hard for some?  Beliefs are beliefs.  Unless they become violent, which is always a possibility for ANY group - regardless of political or religious beliefs, let them be.  They will exist in their bubble - a pocket w/in the greater US.

But the hypocrisy is embedded within your belief system - that anything goes (males into females, females into males, yada yada) unless it offends you. A transsexual may offend a conservative Christian, and the conservative Christian may offend you b/c of his/her views on homosexuality. [/quote]
