Women don't try and force me to live like a woman when they want legislation for equality.

Minorities don't try and force me to live like a minority when they want legislation for equality.

The LGBTQ community doesn't try and force me to live like a member of the LGBTQ community when they want legislation for equality

The poor don't ask people to give up wealth when they ask for legislation for a living wage and social surfaces.

These examples you gave merely want the constitution to be enforced.

The real question is not should theists learn to accept contempt. It's when will they stop trying to usurp the constitution with biblical law?
