If your staff speak only English that seems to be no longer good enough in Ohio. At the very least you are not allowed to mention it. Press excerpt:
"A tavern's sign, "For Service Speak English," violates Ohio civil rights law, a commission ruled Thursday - as the sign still sat in the window of the Pleasure Inn on U.S. 42. The Ohio Civil Rights Commission says that, because of the sign, the Pleasure Inn "engaged in discriminatory practices." As a result of the finding, the business could be ordered to remove the sign, to pay for advertisements about nondiscrimination, and its staff could be ordered to undergo diversity training or cultural sensitivity training, said Christia Alou White, commission spokeswoman..... Ullum responded that "the sign means exactly what it says. ... None of (the tavern's) employees speak any language other than English and, therefore, would be unable to communicate with any patrons who are not versed in the English language."

The bar owner said he does not exclude anyone on the basis of race, color or creed but because he was so bold as to tell the truth about his staff he is in the gun. But truth is always secondary to Leftists.
How Homosexual Correctness Makes Life Insurance Costly for All Single Men
Life insurance is something that you take out to help out those who are in some way dependent on you if you die young. The younger you are when you take it out, the cheaper it is. So it makes sense to sign up before you start a family etc. But if you are young and single you will often be inclined to put it off. Recent insurance rules regardsing AIDS, however, look like making it even more likely that young single men will put it off. It is about to become prohibitively expensive for young men to take out such policies -- because AIDS sufferers are a major category of single men who die prematurely and it is now forbidden to single out the category of young men who account for something like 90% of AIDS sufferers in the Western world -- homosexuals. As the following press excerpt notes:
"British life insurance agents cannot ask male applicants questions about their sexual practices in order to determine HIV risk, according to new guidelines from the Association of British Insurers that went into effect on Saturday, the Financial Times reports (Cumbo, Financial Times, 9/30). About 400 companies are members of ABI and, between them, provide 94% of domestic insurance services sold in the United Kingdom"

So those who follow the safer lifestyle of heterosexuality cannot be in any way rewarded for that and will face the same high premiums that homosexuals do. The insurance companies will have to assume that any single young man who applies for a policy could be a homosexual who will contract AIDS and die young. They would go broke if they didn't allow for that. So homosexual correctness has become a good way of preventing heterosexual men from thinking ahead and providing wisely for their futures.
So it is foreseeable that, among young single men, it will almost entirely be homosexuals who take out such policies. In which case they will face the high premiums that their risky lifestyles necessitate and which the recent rule change is designed to save them from. So nothing will be gained for homosexuals and much may be lost for heterosexuals.
Miracles Incorrect
As an atheist myself I've really got no dog in this fight but one thing I do know is that the New Testament has many accounts of miracles in it and I also know that belief in the reality of what the New Testament describes is central to the Christian faith. And "Pentecostal" and Catholic churches which believe that miracles can still happen to this day seem to me a reasonable outgrowth of Bible teachings. So denying Christians the right to preach about miracles seems a fundamental attack on religious liberty and on the teachings which helped make the modern world what it is. Obviously, then, we must expect that such attacks will come from the religion-hating Leftists. And this excerpt from Britain is one example:
"Complaints about a church poster saying "Miracles Healing Faith" have been dismissed after an investigation. Two people felt the headline was misleading because it could not be scientifically proven and "preyed on the credulity of vulnerable people". The Advertising Standards Authority said it had not breached any rules. The Pentecostal Michael Reid Ministries in Brentwood, Essex, welcomed the findings but said the decision to investigate was "a nonsense".

Well, the Pentecostals won that round but no doubt there will be further bouts to come. I think they might have a bit of difficulty in stopping pilgrimages to Lourdes, though. My own view is that such things as pilgrimages to Lourdes seem to help a lot of people so I am perfectly happy with them. Unlike Leftists, I don't need everybody to think as I do. I practice the tolerance that they only preach. And it isn't even an effort.
