The Christian baker in Colorado who was sued for declining to make a cake for a same-sex couples wedding reception received a strange request last month: Design and bake a cake celebrating Satans birthday.
I would like to get a quote on a birthday cake, for a special event, the email request to baker Jack Phillips, sent Sept. 30 and exclusively obtained by The Daily Signal, reads. It continues:
It is a cake that is religious in theme, and since religion is a protected class, I am hoping that you will gladly bake this cake. As you see, the birthday cake in question is to celebrate the birthday of Lucifer, or as they [sic] are also known Satan who was born as Satan when he was cast from heaven by God.
The request for Phillips to quote a price for the cake also asks for an upside down cross, under the head of Lucifer.
The incident exemplifies the complexity of government laws mandating that those in creative occupations violate their religious beliefs in serving clients or customers.
This is a danger that lawyers for Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, Colorado, say theyre raising before the U.S. Supreme Court, which in June agreed to take the bakers case.
Phillips gained nationwide attention after declining to make the wedding cake for the gay couple, and eventually being found guilty of discrimination by a Colorado state agency and the courts.
Phillips has told The Daily Signal and others that his Christian faith not only doesnt allow him to design and make cakes celebrating same-sex unions, it prevents him from designing cakes that involve such elements as witchcraft or explicit sexuality.

Happy Birthday, Hillary!
Never piss off people who prepare your food. I’d do it if they promised to eat it.
And yet a gay coffee shop owner can kick out pro-life customers just because.....

Devil’s Food?
The jackhole who made the order was a fag. Bitchiness is a common trait among sodomites.
Ok....show proof of his birthday first.
So, when exactly is Satan’s birthday? October 26th?
So, the question becomes how old is he?
I’d surmise, like the proverbial lady stuck at 39, he is stuck at 666 yo.
This will be an excellent anecdotal example for Phillips to use in oral arguments.
CAKE - What’s the Gazette Editorial Board’s tonnage these days Wa.. err [Nameredacted]; aren’t you supposed to be on a diet?
Offer them a price of $10,000,000. Make it clear that the money will be donated to a strongly anit-Satanic organization.
He’ll get to say happy birthday to Satan in person, methinks.
(sorry couldn’t resist)
Request a homosexual wedding cake from a Muslim baker, and add that case to this hearing so we will get a better ruling.
And while we’re at it, let’s insist that Beyonce agree to perform a specific song of our choice for a KKK rally...
Usually the obnoxious homosexual/atheist/Satanist activists all tend to hand out together and in many cases are the same people.
Would be hilarious if they used his image.
And by doing so, you'd be placing a price for your compromise. I don't care if it's 10 quadrillion, you still put up your integrity for sale.
