Another screwhead once told me he couldn't press the elevator switch in my office because it would violate his hasidic views. And a partner at one firm got all bent at me for ordering meat on Friday during lent despite my obvious Catholic name. I smiled, but wanted to tell him to mind his own fucking business.

That may be so, but your post seemed to be talking about the "chicks in burqas that you see on the block." Your application of what you learned from the criminals you defend to people you see on the street who may or may not know the koran by heart is just plain stupid.

I have no problem with your general dislike of all things religious. I'm with you. I just think you're stupid for pointing to women in burqas "on the block" who you assume know nothing about their own religion or worse yet, have all been converted by sure-to-be-criminal boyfriends.
Can you see my point or is this going to be one of those conversations where you
really start making no sense and then end it with, "I'm full of shit, anyway"?
