Meanwhile, in Kentucky











The next to the last cartoon is actually inaccurate; churches like the one Davis attends don't use wine for communion and don't approve of those that do. But I thought it was just too funny not to use it!

So yeah, I am at peace with it. I'm not without sympathy for Charee's situation but neither am I willing to take her side. If she changed her job 3 years ago and her religion 1 year ago, and they conflict and she can't work it out peacefully with her workmates, she can just change one or the other again. Instead, she's lawyered up, and now devout lifelong muslims who have been peacefully trying to integrate with western society for god knows how long have a poster-child for their efforts who, from their point of view, is trying out the faith like a pair of shoes. Is that a great outcome? Will it generate a great outcome?

I'm also interested to know how she managed to get a transcript of the complaint the unidentified co-worker made that forms the basis of her lawsuit. This is probably going to be Ferguson all over again and in three months we'll get a bunch of court transcripts to argue over and cherry-pick, and the cycle will repeat itself, for all of us..
