No one is asking them to be passive. A belief wouldn't slander them anyway Are you seriously NOT getting the difference between some one vilifying someone else and the victim/recipient of that vilification? The belief is not what is at work here. It is the slander/libel and the vilification that is the illegal thing. NO-ONE is saying, least of all me, that evangelicals can't hold those beliefs. The whole point is whether they have a right to slander and vilify others by airing those beliefs on public platforms and wanting the laws to be changed to allow this, especially since it DOES cause harm to the individuals who are the recipients. Courts are full of slander and libel cases where harm is proven and money values are allocated. It is disingenuous of you to claim that there is no such thing as slander and libel and/or that religious beliefs should be exempt. It is the public iteration of that belief that is the problem. A health conscious and egalitarian sporting team does not want this to happen in their name, due to the celebrity of one of its member and have put that into their contract. There are BOTH specific wrongs here in this case and general ones. [/quote] Yoi always go on the rants when your answers could be simpler. I think you’re deflecting. I asked this in one of the myriad threads you started in this but ill try again. Does Australia ban religious teaching on the basis of hurt feelings or not?
