Religious freedom and the right to express ones want to their religion is something we spent hundreds of thousands of young men to fight against with their lives. She can do whatever she wants in my opinion, if she is happy then I am happy, why are people against her right to live the way she wants to live?
Intolerance is the main problem, not her new found religion.Comment

So we should tolerate Nazis? We should qualify that a bit, tolerate those who tolerate others. Check out the details of Islam on reputable sites like the US State department pages on human rights, women's rights groups or the Guardian/Independent/BBC. With the exception of Oman, tolerance of non Muslims and women's rights as we understand them do not exist.bloggoth

It is not a question of tolerance, it is a question of why is she doing it. She has chosen to go public on her religion, just as she is free to do so, we are just as free to form an opinion about her motives. In my opinion she is a sad individual with serious issues looking for attention.Originally posted by minestrone View PostReligious freedom and the right to express ones want to their religion is something we spent hundreds of thousands of young men to fight against with their lives.
