Could we please get this simple point straight? You ought to know from the context that I'm not saying you are disallowing my verbal statement of my opinions (although with the excoriating responses I get, including from you in this post, in a sense that's not even true), but in context when I'm saying I'm to be punished for my opinions it's for my obligation to act upon them when put to the test.
It's important Faith. Very important. Because in fact none of these laws affect you at all do they? In fact, they affect virtually no Christians at all. Whereas laws against what your opinions are, what religion you profess and what you say,
would affect you. Which is why the next thing you say is utter bollocks.....

And yet, when pulled up on it you still think there's a comparison
I don't think the Nazi example is too far-fetched for that, no.
So you're sat there at home in front of your PC able to think and say anything without any concern whatsoever that the FBI will turn up, arrest you for simply being a religious idiot, put you in a work camp in Alaska and pile your emaciated, naked body into a mass grave in the woods when you're no longer any use for their 'medical research'. And you think that there's some comparison to Nazi Germany? What??
Barking mad.
