Thank God for this victory. I have been praying nightly for these people.
Send this “lesbian couple” to Iran. Or Afghanistan.
Let them go try this “serve me by force” nonsense there and see where it gets them.
It’s only a victory if it’s really over for them.
Hah! Let these fruit cakes eat cake! Just don’t expect NORMAL people to be forced to bake it!
Maybe they can spice up their own ingredients, such as adding a pillar of salt to the equaision.
They will send a tranny in next, something like a cake for a sex change commemoration party.
They are NOT going to leave the baker alone. The goal is not a cake, it’s to put her out of business. Probably because she is a Christian.
I’m a bit confused on how this actually started. Did they refuse to provide the cake on the grounds that the customers were lesbians, or because the customers wanted the cake customized in a particular way that would have comprised a statement regarding lesbianism? In my worldview you can refuse to bake a lesbian cake, but you can’t refuse to bake a lesbian a cake.

The Latter. They wanted the Cake designed in such a way tht it CELEBRATES a homosexual marriage.

Yes. The Lesbian Couple still has the option of bringing their case to a higher court. If they do, this is only one battle won for the Christian baker, not the war.
So they can’t lick that?
“The order for the wedding cake depicted two lesbians; therefore, creating such a cake conflicted with the Cakeshop owner’s religious beliefs about marriage.”
Yes, the couple could have bought any standard cake in the store but wanted a customization with a same-sex couple depicted on top.
The incident was way back in 2017. I’m hoping the baker has not gone bankrupt seeing her case through, but I would not be surprised if shes been struggling financially.
The lesbians went there to start trouble. They asked for what they knew would be refused so they could sue. They lost, so far.
It was to be a customized cake. They offered to sell them a cake and let them decorate it themselves.
Bingo. It started with demanding a wedding cake for homosexuals and now its sterilizing kids. I’d call that a slippery slope.
The lawsuit was a set up and for the purpose of legislation through litigation.
They could have gone to ANY other bakery but no, chose that one.
Since there were other options available, it’s then safe to conclude that the only reason to pick one you know is a Christian and sue them is for the sake of the lawsuit itself.
I wonder why the conservatives have not done the same ... tried to force a Muslim baker to bake a gay-themed cake or a leftist-run bakery to make a pro-life or MAGA cake.

In the ‘90s we were in church one Sunday morning, and in pranced a group of four or five transvestites. I was in the choir and we saw them the minutes they walked in the door thinking, “Uh oh. What now?”
The usher welcomed them and took them to an empty pew toward the front. After about five minutes they got up and walked out.
Turns out it was an organized event where the weirdos went to all the Baptist churches in the area to start big trouble. When they realized they weren’t going to be successful they just left.
We figured if they were there, they might as well hear the Gospel.
Rather than send them somewhere, the baker should send them the bill
