Well, trying to look at this from my own point of view I would hope for a bit of understanding from the Government and from the rest of the population if there was some law passed which tried to force me to do something which was against my beliefs.
Another thought: If a law was passed saying that every adult had to give a pint of blood each year to keep NHS stocks up I would hope an exemption would be made for the Jehovah's Witnesses even though I'm not one.
If we are to be a tolerant society then we need to be tolerant of everyone, not just selected groups.
