    This is crazy. I agree with Amanda. They ruined something that other people use for help. It's disturbing that you can't really trust a lot of people.

    They're using the right word - "fix" - but will they end up in the right place? It's hard to tell. Gov. Mike Pence and House Speaker Brian Bosma each chose that word - "fix" - with purpose Tuesday as they sought to assure Hoosiers, the nation and the world that they and Senate leader David Long can revise the Religious Freedom Restoration Act to ensure it's not a tool for discrimination.

    The devastating event took place on our planet many millions of years ago, but researchers are only now beginning to discover what happened. In a remote part of Central Australia, the two pieces of asteroid left what geophysicists say is the largest impact zone ever found on Earth, spreading over an area 400 kilometers (250 miles) wide.

    Researchers are unable to find sediment layers in rocks that match debris from this time zone, which they were able to do for the asteroid that is theorized to wipe out the dinosaurs.

    Expressing you religion is I think is fair but rejecting gays publicly isn't. It is setting a bad example to our public and generations to come. By allowing the option it's is basically telling others it's ok not reject gays when it's wrong to do.

    This is just wrong. No human should be sent away if they are willing to spend money at your business, especially if they are gay. People should be free.

    Religious freedom? The bible says "Love Thy Neighbour", not shame them and deny them for who they are. It also isn't fair that the sports players are effected by one man's decision.

    I think it is ridiculous that anyone is still being discriminated this kind of stuff. It's something that isn't new, people need to be more open minded and worry so much about what others are doing.

    But with Iranian-backed rebels now overrunning the U.S. ally tasked with beating back local al Qaeda affiliates, the nation at the tip of Arabian Peninsula makes a better case study in the approach's limitations. Yemen was the petri dish for Obama's concept of how to fight Islamic extremists with a hybrid warfare of U.S.
