text: Michael:  I saw the Hobby Lobby "advertisement of faith" and simply chose not to read it.  That's an option which was available to everyone.  
  
  I think the Hobby Lobby owners have every right to hold and express their religious/political beliefs, including spending their money to have them published in newspapers.  You and I express our views and beliefs with Letters to the Editor.  Ironically, that Hobby Lobby ad helped pay for the Letters to the Editor feature which allowed you to condemn the ad and the RG for publishing it.  Sometimes it's amazing how that First Amendment works.  
  
  You and I may both feel that full-page statement of faith was bunk.  We have the right to feel it was and to say it was.  That's a reflection of the same freedom which protects the H-L folks right to have it published.    Question for you Michael:  How would the RG's refusal to print this ad be different from the bakery refusing to bake a cake for a same-sex marriage?  Let me know...regards, Gary
