And the baker, trying to stay true to their beliefs, refused.
Hopefully the bakery is owned and run by homosexuals.
He won’t get the time of day from a judge.
Oh, no! I feel sooo bad for them. /s
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
As it should be.
Love the sinner. Hate the sin. Don't force me to support or encourage the sin.
Yes yes yes! This man is a saint!
“I remember the words detestable, disgrace, homosexuality, and sinners.”
I think, God said words to the general effect.
This is why the Holy Bible will have to be outlawed if things keep moving in the course the liberals are choosing for us all. (of insanity)
I think it was no mistake they put clinging to Bibles and Guns together.
They are coming for both, and if they take the Bibles first the Guns should be easy pickings a few years down the road.
Religious discrimination? Why didn’t Beavis think about this when people disregarded his concern with “Cornholio” and his “Bunghole?”
LGBTQetc a religion? Come on!
Was the cake a fudge cake?
This whole business with wedding cakes is a big distraction.
I think it’s sad that people are suffering persecution over this. I don’t think it’s sinful to make a cake for a “gay wedding.” And the sodomy-activists who deliberately seek out Christian bakers to harass are despicable totalitarians. And I think it’s unreasonable to expect a “gay bakery” to write something on a cake that offends them.
It’s all a sad, unproductive sideshow. The ONLY good to come out of it is that the sodomy-activists have opened the eyes of a lot of people to their fascism.
The first amendment’s freedom to assemble clause protects those that wish to assemble and those that do not wish to assemble. As such, the anti-discrimination laws are clearly unconstitutional.
The way to destroy stupid laws is to abuse them, so I support this.
Kind of like when I put “black” or “Native American, tribe Levi” and all sorts of things on government forms.
I want one with Mohmmed Bomb Head on it.
Well, it proved a point on the socio-political level. That it did, handsomely.
Did it present the gospel or take advantage of an opening for it. That is “unclear.” (Actually looks a whole lot like no, but not every single detail is spelled out, we could allow a hypothetical yes.)
The gay baker will never be held to the same standard, I think we all know this
I’m confused.
If he wouldn’t allow her to make a copy of the message, how did he expect her to put it on the cake?
Regarding the Christian business owners that have been denied their constitutional protections in such cases, note that the Founding States accepted the right to refuse to do business as evidenced by language in the Constituton’s Clause 17 of Section 8 of Article I.
Clause 17: To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State [emphasis added] in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;—And
Speaking of constitutional protections, and as mentioned in related threads, the states which are forcing Christian business owners to do business with gays are in violation of Secton 1 of the 14th Amendment imo. Section 1 prohibits the states from making laws / policies which unreasonably abridge constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression wrongly being ignored in other cases.
Sadly, pro-gay activist judges are getting away with ignoring the Constitution because citizens are no longer being taught the Constitution, 10th Amendment-protected state powers wrongly being used to trump 1st Amendment protections applied to the states via 14th Amendment in other cases.
