So Who Wants "Freedom From Religion" Now?

Conservatives like to say that freedom of religion is not freedom from religion.  Well, anyway, not freedom from their religion.

But when it comes to your religion, or how you might choose to exercise it, freedom be damned.  Not when the power of the state can be used to ensure that you can never truly be free from the conservative view of religion.  Are you a minister in Indiana willing to perform wedding ceremonies for gay and lesbian couples?  Well, be afraid, be very afraid.

And the rest of us should be, too.
