The state won’t give a crap if a gay baker refuses to make a Christian-themed cake.

Ah but you see the excuse is that it would be a “hate cake” and offensive, so it would be ok not to make it. You would be forcing somebody to make a cake “against” something (Christian = anti-gay), whereas a gay-marriage cake is “for” something (two people loving each other). Seriously, I’ve heard this argument. It completely flies over their heads that a Christian is taking a position because they’re FOR an ethics/moral code, gays are anti-that-code.

...free speech be damned, yes, the left really do think they get to decide for everyone.

Why we can’t win one of these cases based on the fact that it is “working under contract for an event” we morally oppose, therefore will not spend our time and energy working toward it - vs. the entirely different situation of not selling a pre-baked cake to someone because of WHO they are? There’s a difference between discriminating between people and an event. One involves a contract, the other doesn’t.
