In some ways, I agree and in some ways I don't.
In medicine, if a patient comes to me asking for a termination of pregnancy, I can refer them on. However, if I feel it's against my religion/morals/own belief system, then I don't have to. However, I do have a duty of care to the patient and hence should refer them on to someone who can deal with their request.
What this means is I don't have to do xyz but I do have to ensure the patient gets seen by someone who can do xyz. If I can do this in medicine, why can it not be extended to other situations? Eg that Christian couple who turned the gays away - instead of just saying no, the equivalent would be to redirect them to a place that they could stay?

 Keep an eye out for the end of the world : I just agreed with L3v1ck and L_U on an issue of religious conscience.

I know the feeling, I had the shocking realisation today that I agreed with the leader of the Labour party about something (NHS reforms). Sobered me right up that did. And agreed on the above.
