In my opinion this is a question where respect of different opinions clashes: On the one side you have homosexuals, and probably the majority of the public opinion, who think it is totally normal to be gay. On the other side you have a religion which -- to my knowledge -- thinks of being gay as being a sin. Something wrong.
Which opinion should come first? Of course one could say that the gay side should come first, because they harm nobody in being gay. But then again, don't they harm the feelings of the arch-christians? Naa, I can't really support this kind of argument.
Maybe taking the pragmatic point of view is easier: I think any employer should be allowed to employ whoever they want. And if I were gay, I wouldn't really want to work in those Christian bookshops which discriminate against me anyhow, would I? Our society has enough diversity, I hope.
