the truth about Indiana's RFRA is that it wasn't even needed to discriminate against gays under the public accommodations laws as there is no provision of the Indiana public accommodation statute that identifies gays as a protected class.

People in Indiana were free to refuse service to gays last week, last year, and are still free to do so today.

Apparently this part of their religion escapes these people....

"The second is this, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

No other commandment greater than these...love your god and love your neighbor...I didn't see that part where there is a subheading for "unless your neighbor is gay then hate him and refuse him service"
