Comment Re:Do It, it worked in AZ (Score 1) 886

Let's think about a Muslim slaughterhouse to see how this is a false dichotomy.

A Muslim slaughterhouse can refuse to slaughter pigs. However, they can't just refuse to slaughter pigs that belong to Mormons.

A black or Jewish printer can have a "no racist posters" policy, and deny racist posters. The KKK members could still have non-racist things printed. (ignoring the fact that KKK membership isn't likely to ever be a protected class).

Similarly, a person can have a, "No gay cakes" policy, and still have to sell a generic, "congratulations" cake that they normally make.

And a pharmacist can choose to not dispense certain drugs, and then be fired by their pharmacy because of refusing to do their job.

tl;dr - There's a difference in refusing to do certain things and refusing to serve certain groups of people.

Comment Extra sugar vs age (Score 1) 496

When I was about 36 I stopped drinking all pop and juices and reduced as much sugar as I could. I lost 20 LB in about 4 months. 41 now and have been attempting the same thing with 0 weight loss results. At this time in my life looks like burning more calories than I intake need to be done along with the sugar reduction.
