"Where is the real harm here besides what is on this page." This is not enough? I would have thought that the examples provided at the beginning of the post were evidence aplenty to be going on with.

For the record I would not wish to defend anyone who expected to be able to tell someone else they were going to hell, or otherwise express hatred. @weepingcross's post below expresses the point I was trying to make.

"religious types are trying to put themselves above the law."
I think that what "religious types" (nice stereotyping there!) are trying to do is to ensure that the law takes account of genuine ethical scruples. The law already does this in a limited number of cases - medical staff with ethical objections are not required to take part in abortion procedures; those who object ot taking oaths in a court of law (or elsewhere) have the option to make an affirmation instead; those with genuine conscientious objections to military service have this taken into account.
"it's an easy route to disenfranchising sections of society because they don't accept your groupthink delusion."
Quite, though perhaps not in the way you intended! Just because you (and maybe millions of others - it doesn't matter how many) do not happen to subscribe to Gary McFarlane's point of view does not mean that it should be dismissed out of hand.
