Since other thread has two posters that drove an otherwise civil debate into a mess, I just wanted to continue here.
Here's the original link regarding a Christian theme park that wanted to hire only Christians:

The issue seems to be not whether or not they must employ only Christians, but whether or not they should have the option to.
There is one question I'd like to address: Imagine a women's rights organization wanted only those who believe in women's rights to work for their organization should they have the right to? One response to this was that an employee doesn't need to believe in women's rights to clean a toilette there.
Fine.
But is there ANY position that a woman's rights group can specifically want those with feminist views to have? Or must this group be forced to hire those who don't believe in women's rights because it would be discriminatory not to? Likewise, are there any positions an evangelical Christian business can request to be filled by Christians? Or should both groups be denied the right to request those who share their beliefs?
