>The law prohibiting discrimination against persons by reason of their religion is defined to include directly passing over someone because of their beliefs. Actually I would guess the author supports religious discrimination, although he doesn't make a clear statement either away. If the discriminator is a private citizen, then a freedom to discriminate follows directly from the basic freedoms he lists, particularly freedom of association. He evaded this issue by only giving examples of public discrimination (by public schools, courts, and government employers).
