As I've said, I'm not sure what the courts have ruled re: animal sacrifice. I am only certain of what has been ruled re: the harming of other people in observance of beliefs.

Since the pilot's taking peyote could affect the safety of others, I would not support the right of the pilot to remain in his job. The refusal to serve alcohol, on the other hand, has no safety implications of any kind.

And a Muslim bartender?? LOL

Let me know when you find one.

Yes, we're all stupid. You are a prince....a real prince. I'd love to use the hackneyed expression, "you must be a joy to fly with," but I doubt you're a pilot. Funny how I've expressed my suspicions several times, as have others in other threads. You never address it, refute it or even acknowledge it. Things that make you go hmmmmm!

Lucky for me, it doesn't matter what you think is true or isn't true.

What IS clear is you are attempting to use the tried and true liberal method of attacking the messenger when you don't like the message in an attempt to discredit both.

And it's as transparent as you are.

Careful LAG. You'll have people questioning your pilot credentials if you refuse to stay silent.

But, in principle, you're okay with a bartender refusing to serve drinks on religious grounds?

Or a Muslim refusing Jewish clients on religious grounds?
