Everyone seems to be ignoring that fact, and instead attacking Ruth's choice of religion.
People disagree with each other, and that they can do so loudly and openly is one of the many great things about this country. That they can also openly practice whatever religion they want is something else to celebrate.
When we start telling her that she needs to move out of the country because we disagree with her, I think (IMHO) that we are belittling the rights that so many on this site fought for, and others have died for.
