Not hardly!  What you  did  do  is  blow  all  to  hell  any
possible credibility that you may have had (which wasn't any
by my standards) and shown us all that you will change  your
story  to  fit  your position when it pleases you.  The fact
that I said little only shows that I didn't need to say much
to point out the fallacy of your position.

No, I cannot give  statute,  title,  section,  paragraph  or
whatever.  But,  will  you deny that you know discrimination
on religious preference is illegal?
