this about sums it up.
People who do this are ****** bags. It's like, you invite a close buddy to a bbq and he/she brings their vegetarian wife/husband. Then they complain about being hungry because they expected you to know about them because they're so self righteous. Canada is that nice ****ing person just trying to get all our buddies over for a great barbecue with some decent sirloin and a couple hamburgers, and you've always got that one loser who's gotta come by and **** everything up by coming to a barbeque when you can't put leaves on a barbeque. And to that i say: You should have brought your own salad.
Similarly, to the sikhs i say either:
A) give up motorcycling
b) give up your religion
c) bend the rules of your religion
a) is fairly easy. Note how some religious people give up drinking or smoking. Guess what, they deal with it without whining to alcohol or tobacco companies because their favourite beer doesn't come in an alcohol free version.
B) probably easier said than done for most people. Not going to push this one any further because it will seem like i'm attacking religion.
C) this is the most logical solution. It's your religion, you deal with the baggage. Go to your leaders and request they allow for you to do whatever you need to do so you can ride. My "religion" or spirituality i guess i would call my beliefs (though i see me becoming more and more secularized) is one which hated gays not too long ago (and some people still do) , guess what i did, i bent the rules and became accepting of gays because i'm not a dick of a human being. I felt like my integrity as a human is much more meaningful than what a couple millennium old book had to say about it. Crazy ****ing idea, i know!!!
But don't you dare try to change a law that isn't even discriminatory and claim human rights violations when you don't get your way
