FULL TITLE: Baker Has a Message for the Gov’t Official Who Just Fined Him $135,000 for Declining a Gay Wedding Cake: ‘He’s Doing This With the Wrong Christian
Just hours after Oregon officials announced that Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of Sweetcakes by Melissa, would be fined $135,000 for their refusal to bake a cake for a lesbian wedding, Aaron Klein had a message for government officials: He has no plans of backing down.
“He wants to silence anyone who opposes his point of view,” Klein told TheBlaze, speaking specifically about Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, who has spearheaded the case against the couple. “Unfortunately, he’s doing this with the wrong Christian, because I fight back.”
Klein also delivered a message to Americans and business leaders about why he believes that his case is monumentally important.
“For years, we’ve heard same-sex marriage will not affect anybody,” he said. “I’m here firsthand to tell everyone in America that it has already impacted people. Christians, get ready to take a stand. Get ready for civil disobedience.”

Yes, we’re going to have to remind ourselves of in the future.
If you want to help through Samaritian’s Purse, it’s under “Persecuted Christians USA.” (Sad to say, we need that category now.) Thank you Franklin Graham for setting this up.
I'm thinking more along the lines of eternity in hell.
No bakery should be expected to bake & decorate a pornographic cake. They’d have to sue me & good luck getting blood from a Twinkie. Twinkie’s poor.
RE: # 37, I prefer the term dick**ad.
I wondered that myself. Only I couldn’t remember the name of the other commie bastard Avakian. I’m glad somebody else recognized that surname... Now we just need to find out if there is a relation between them...
“But Christians who try to act like Christians are the main targets. There is 1.8% of the population who are being pretty successful at purging Christians. It’s remarkable.”
Book of Acts shows a population that was 99% against Christians, but the Christians prevailed nonetheless. Sure, most of the disciples died unnatural deaths, but the gates of hell did not prevail against the movement. I’ll bet on God. He always has something up his sleeve.
BULL CONNOR REINCARNATED........
Man with an Armenian heritage should know better.....
That might actually appeal to him.
Is that the kind of language that God would use?
If you can’t even control your own tongue, how can you pretend to speak for God?
James 1
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
The problem is that the present USSC interprets XIV as nullifying or repealing major parts of I, IV, V, VI, and all of IX and X.
According to current “constitutional interpretation” your rights are contingent on your not using them to “discriminate”.
I thought the same thing also....
His Facebook has been revised. My post along with several (maybe more than 100) have been removed. He (or his handler - whoever deals with that for him) addressed none of it. My ability to post to him was also removed. I was very civil and said nothing vile or profane - no 4-letter words were used and I did not call him names. In fact, most of the people on there were like that.
I’m using another profile to post more today. If that’s also removed, I have more where that came from.
He seemed to leave only the posts which agree with him or where the lib seemed to have the last word in some argument.
