“Lots of people have been asking us to take it off,” Mr. Wellhoefer said. “Our response has been, ‘Thank you for your concern, have a great day and God bless you.’”

Rightious.

Stay strong, Mr. Wellhoefer!

How can a “labor commissioner” impose a fine? Can’t that only be done by a judge? Where was “due process” in this case.

Also, is the “labor commissioner” a poof?

I don’t like how this bakery and its owners has been castigated by the media and treated for their faith, but I also don’t like the idea of a bakery owned by Christians who interpret Matthew 5:32 as saying that you can only divorce and remarry if your spouse has committed adultery refusing service to other Christians whom they think are remarrying and thin their remarriage to be an adulterous one. Millions of Christians have divorced and remarried and I doubt that all of them interpret Matthew 5:32 this way.

And I certainly don’t like the idea of any Muslim who owns a business in a heavily concentrated area of Detroit or other city refusing business to other Muslims who don’t have beards.

Nor do I like the idea that Muslim cab drivers, some of whom said that they should not be forced to give rides to people who drink and being able to refuse service to people who do drink alcohol based upon religious belief -— as an attempt by some Muslims to refuse service on these grounds was attempted a little while back.

Aren't all white male liberals poofs?

I would say the bakery proprietors did them a favor by not selling them a cake:

The baker probably wouldn’t know if adultery is involved, unless the couple told them.

But with queers it is quite obvious what is going on.

They ought to be free to only supply a product which contains an expression of approval or blessing or celebration to whomever their consciences deem they may supply said product without committing sin. And if that is stricter than the Lord intended, still the Lord would not want their conscience gratuitously violated, that is without genuinely being persuaded.

Do you enjoy forcing other people to provide services that are against their religious beliefs?

I believe that the first Amendment says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise there of"

I don't see anywhere it says, "You shall bake a cake for anyone, any time and for any reason".

All the queers had to do was to move on to a bakery that would accommodate their perverted desires...piece of cake.

Do you enjoy using Straw Man arguments by saying that I “enjoy forcing people to provide services that are against their religious beliefs?”

Looking at the picture of the bulldykes, the bakery owners did them a favor by refusing to make them a cake!
