I was wondering if someone would stoop to the point of playing the Nazi card. Hopefully the post was alcohol induced. Probably time to go before I say something even a fraction as reprehensible as this person just did. Forum rules prevent any reply that even approaches expressing the level of contempt such simple minded comments on such important matters elicits in me.

As for me – I am also an atheist.
And as for "You seem to support the right of others to freely practice their religion in ways and places you agree with" - yeah. I do. Because "in ways and places I agree with" means "in ways and places that do not actively oppress other people."
I'm sorry, I don't want to argue with you anymore because you have a very frustrating way of thinking.
Like I quoted RBG before: “We have the right to swing our arm until it hits the other fellow's nose.”
When bigoted beliefs cause others to feel marginalized, not accepted, afraid, suicidal, and actively oppressed, I do not support those beliefs. Arm meet nose.

Saying that an exterminator who doesn't want to harm raccoons can't or shouldn't be an exterminator seems a bit harsh to me me. Sorry if my way of expressing my opinion on the subject makes you feel uncomfortable enough to not wish to continue without providing any real satisfaction to you.
