I could care less if a venue chooses to install foot baths to accommodate its patrons. And if it is so bad to witness (I never have) then I will take my business elsewhere.

And a contrary attitude does seem to be bias against the faith of others.

I do think it is hypocritical of the ACLU and the atheists to not challenge public institutions for funding the installation, but not sure that a stance has yet to be taken on the issue.

I don't. The ACLU has always been an anti-Christian organization first and foremost. In that light, it will always take on issues that "promote" Christianity in the public square but shy away from issues that have nothing to do with Christianity.

It’s not a matter of what a business does to accommodate its patrons. If it were, I would agree with you. When tax dollars are used to fund many of these Muslim footbaths, such as in universities and airports, it becomes preferential treatment of one religion.

Ummm, they’re busily installing them across college campii.

So if you’ve got to take a leak you can’t just “take your business elsewhere” unless you’re willing to get arrested for whizzing on the shrub outside the loo.

ISN’T IT FUNNY HOW SOCIETY TWISTS INTO PRETZELS ABOUT SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE LUNACIES, HAS FITS IF SOME CHRISTIAN DARE STICKS UP FOR IGWT ON OUR COINS, BUT THIS GETS A COMPLETE FREE PASS!

Just mount them on the ceiling.
