To me it looks like the whole thing hinges on 'reasonable accomodations'.   It doesn't sit right with me as to why someones personal beliefs have more weight than others.  How say you?

This begs to ask the question. In a mostly atheist world, would her head dress still force the store to bend their policies? We'd think it to be atrocious if someone refused to hire someone because they had, say, autism, but in this hypothetical world where the majority of the populace is atheist, where would religion fall into on a category of mental illness?

I could care less. I don't shop at A&F and don't care what people wear or if they wear nothing at all.
All hail my new signature!

Admit it. You're secretly green with envy.

I care if certain people wear nothing at all.



I care a great deal

Why would a devout Muslim work at Abercrombie and Fitch, where the shorts show your vagina and the catalogs feature HBO porn?
How can you be sure my refusal to agree with your claim a symptom of my ignorance and not yours?
