You should take a person as you find them, not paint with a broad brush and judge people by association.
What if a gay man abused a child, should we judge gay men in general for that?
What if an Albion fan expressed racism or homophobia, should we judge all Albion fans for that?

Well,
doesn't sound very tolerant to me. You seem to have a problem with religion in general, rather than just this woman, and you seem to think that anti LGBT attitudes define relgion and people who are religious.
What about when a person defers to their faith when it comes to the homeless...

Because according to UK law hating religious people is comparable to hating black people.

You mean inactions, not actions. I actually think that is important in these kinds of cases. She didn't do anything, her "crime" was passive. I can't think of anyone who I think should be forced to do anything.
I'm not defending this womans beliefs, I would have thought she would be fired, and...
Don't you think you are conflating being religious with being racist?

All the people who are saying that this...
