It just boggles my mind that a purchaser of a service, when told by the purveyor of that service that it cannot be performed, expects performance. I guess capitalism and contract are passé.

I really don't care who marries who anymore, it is their business, not the government, especially Federal. I also believe that no one should be forced to sell their service if it is against their conscience. It is like some lawyers who will not take a case because it offends him/her so there is always another one down the street. I believe in the idea where "We can refuse to serve anyone for any reason" but that died a long time ago because of the Civil Right era. The bad thing about the Civil Rights era was that it evolved from a crusade of the individual to a crusade of the group, so hence, this is where we are today. If someone wants to deny service, it is their right, if they want to provide it, it is their right too. Yes, some business owners can be jerks at times when they refuse to serve others of a different race and so forth, but being the owner does have its perks.
