And just how, anyway, does this infringe upon anybody&#8217;s religious freedom?  Baptists can still be Baptists.  They can still humiliate themselves by insisting that the Bible is Inerrant; they can still accost strangers on the street and give them a ridiculous Jack Chick tract; they can still poison their children&#8217;s minds with the grotesque tale that they were born no damn good because a talking snake tricked Eve into stealing a piece of fruit; they can still keep gays, transgenders, all <i>whatevers<\/i>, out of their home and church, and write indignant letters to their elected representatives and local newspapers about their appalling wickedness.<\/p>\n<p>You just can&#8217;t expect decent, educated grownups to take you seriously, or that they will continue to defer to your ridiculous superstitions.
