Rachel Bowman-Cryer said during the BOLI hearing that the experience left her "humiliated and ashamed and destroyed and questioning — questioning whether anybody or not would accept us as a married couple."

No it didn't. They are simply lying through their teeth. It did nothing but anger them, and they and the pond scum Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian couldn't care less about the first amendment or religious rights. They have an agenda to destroy Christianity, and couldn't care less about the fallout.

make the cake with salt identifying as sugar...

think they might mind.

it’s the same thing.

Wow, and all of that from refusing to inscribe a cake that they could have gotten inscribed down the street.

This should be a huge warning sign about what that faction wants. They want to “victimidate” society into a corner.

And frankly... even America’s black slaves (which really WAS an evil position to put humans into) didn’t complain like this at a lot of things that were worse. It took the white liberal to teach them how to do that.

I don’t think it is about destroying Christianity so much as it is about getting a big financial windfall. They knew this bakery would not want to provide them with a cake for their “wedding” so they targeted them, knowing there would be a big pay-off for them. Most bakers would have made the cake, and been grateful for the business. Their only real motivation is money, it is not about hurt feelings. I suspect they were absolutely thrilled by their refusal.
