Should a Catholic shopkeeper feel ashamed for selling condoms?

lol, so if someone doesn't follow their religion, it's OK to intimidate them into following it w/ threats of violence & possibly even acts of violence considering Al-Muhajiroun (Choudary's group) radicalised Michael Adebolajo & Michael Adebowale.

I thought they were just protesting. Plus they aren't protesting people that don't follow their religion. They are only protesting ones that claim to practice their religion but are doing a **** job of it.

No. It isn't okay to threaten violence in the name of religion. I am not saying it is.

I'm all for more money, but wouldn't that just cause the economy to inflate, and we end up back where we started? I've not taken in classes in economics, so correct me if I'm wrong.

Oh yeah that's a good idea like college education is free also there are people with Master's degrees working at Mcdonald's but I wouldn't expect you to understand any of that so carry on.
