"The Co-operative Bank has asked an evangelical Christian group to close its account because of its anti-homosexual views.
The bank said the opinions of Christian Voice were incompatible with its support for diversity."

An interesting one. Whilst I share the Co-op's consternation at CV's views I'm not entirely sure about refusing to let them hold an account. I say this purely because there is an issue about where organisations draw the line. On the other hand the Co-op does make a good point about supporting diversity within its workplace and elsewhwere. Equally CV raise a valid point regarding where this leaves other religious groups with similarly homophobic views which, rightly or wrongly, are grounded in their interpretation of their religion.
So I need some help making my mind up on this one!
