[nagdu] Fw: [nfbmi-talk] Fw: guide dog banned from church bus

[larry d keeler]

The interesting question is: why is the dog allowed in the church and its
functions but not on the bus? If the church is going to claim some kind of
religious thing, it wouldn't be consistant with the rest of it.

Whoever thought that getting exempted from the ADA would lead to stuff like
this? I thought it was mainly because there were old churches that were
historical monuments, and they were concerned about the cost, and the
destruction of these historical buildings for ramps, etc.  I think this
pastor ought to be ashamed of himself.  I think perhaps he has a fear of
dogs, because perhaps he was bitten as a kid.  I'm just making an assumption
here, don't know it for fact.  He os nothing about the training that dogs go
through to become guides, and it doesn't sound like he 
cares.    Debby and Nova
