The judge's commentary was overdone but I think the end result of the case was correct. You should not be able to claim religious belief as a reason to not do the job you are employed for or not to defer to someone better suited in regards to the situation. The real question is whether this can be used to auto-judge all relevant cases in favor of the secular over the religious position.

Enough of that. Suwako.

So the judge decided that personal beliefs are not grounds for refusing to counsel gays? I mean, as much as I disagree with religion's stance on gay people, he has every right to subscribe to said religion whether I think it's absolute bullshit or not.

It's possible. Apparently anything can gather faith if they put their mind to it, and Reimu doesn't have regular contact with her god... Mima could have kicked her real god's ass and usurped its spot.
