I call BS.

Do you actually think "freedom of religion" is a free pass to do anything you want because you claim God wants it that way?

If that’s the case, then it would be okay for practitioners of Voodoo to perform livestock sacrifices when it suits them, right? And what about those cases where someone died since they were kept from medical attention "because God said 'NO'?" Seems to me someone went to jail.

And back to her case, there are some in her religion that she has the obligation to kill infidels if she has the opportunity. Should we look the other way since it would interfere with her practice of her religion?

And besides, as I said earlier, God doesn't want her driving in the first place, that sinner!

This is an arena where a little common sense needs to be exercised.

Ok, rant off.
