I guess it is a case of the owner doing what they like with their company. If one chooses not to fly with them, Im sure they are okay with it.
Eatons refused to sell cigarettes or alcohol as Timothy thought smoking was devils handiwork. Folks clearly had alternatives if they didn't like Timothy's religion.

More importantly, I found your caustic remark about it doing "no good" to be in extremely poor taste. If a soul was saved or if someone was able to find the inner peace to embrace their fate as they stared certain death in the eye, I'd say it did a lot of good.

Is anyone on this forum flying AS soon? My GF and I have upgraded YVR-LAX-YVR tickets (she snagged the last 2 upgrade seats on the return trip using her newly-minted MVP Gold status 
). Will enjoy the food and wine but look with faint interest at the prayer card.
