RE:”She did provide flowers to homosexuals for anything other than a gay marriage. In fact, she had sold flowers to the man that is now suing her for nine years. She simply could not provide flowers for a gay marriage because the sacrament of marriage is a picture of the relationship between God and the church and a gay marriage utterly perverts that picture. Basically a gay marriage is just as blasphemous as a black mass. A gay marriage is a mockery of the sacrament of marriage while a black mass is a mockery of the sacrament of communion.”

Its a for profit business not a charity or religious institution, so it has to comply with nondiscrimination laws, even ones that we hate.

Practically there is no way out of this,
if a court ruled as she (and we) liked then the next defendant would use it as a precedent to refuse to serve race mixed couples getting married.

Its just not realistic.

I am just my dad and grandparents are not alive to see what libs have done to marriage

The constitution is takes precedent over all federal and state laws. There is no special standard for non discrimination laws. I agree that this is a test case but if this stands than America is no longer free.

Sorry, can’t buy that line of thinking.

If that’s the case then we can all sue the Amish too.

The discrimination taking place here is against her religion, which is the one actually protected under the Constitution.
