Religious Freedom
WorldNetDaily -- you know, the far right religious news source that would like to see a crèche in each town square and the Ten Commandments in every courthouse -- is concerned that the Kansas City Airport is installing foot washing basins in airport restrooms so that Muslim cab drivers can wash their feet before prayer.
WorldNetDaily loves the fact that some Christian fundamentalist pharmacists refuse to fill prescriptions for birth control pills out of religious conviction, but they loathe Muslim cab drivers in Minneapolis who refuse passengers who carry alcohol or use seeing eye dogs for the very same reason.
Seems that for fundamentalists of every stripe, one man's religious ritual is another's blasphemy.
