Religion is far more of a choice than homosexuality. - Jon Stewart
Religion is far more of a choice than homosexuality. And the protections that we have for religion — we protect religion. And talk about a lifestyle choice — that is absolutely a choice… It’s a travesty that people have forced someone who is gay to have to make their case that they deserve the same basic rights as someone else.

4. That was known in 1775

Why else would the Founding Fathers have put "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" into the constitution?

Duh

9. Agreed. ...
It's pretty obvious if one gives it a moment's thought. Unfortunately, few ever do.
