Thank you for your explanation. I sort of thought most FReepers would or should be offended by vespa300’s comments, and you affirmed it.
I am not sure why vespa300 feels the right to judge us.
It is not.
Like a bunch of FReepers seem to think that web designer issue is about homosexuality.
Also incorrect.
Both cases are about the same principle. This case is about companies not having to pay attention to their employees. As long as we pay them they have to do what we want! Well, no. There are certain things you may not force someone to do even if you offer to pay them.
The web designer case is much the same. Lorie Smith does not have to agree to work for anyone as long as they pay her.
I have a friend who owns a bakery. She is in no way religious but when she was asked to do a rather large order for a child beauty pageant, which she found morally repulsive, she said no. She is not for sale.
That is her right.
Money is not the solution to everything. So the SCOTUS found and so it is.
I find that uplifting.
And find how many people would prefer to weasel rather then stand firmly on their rights to be a bit disheartening.
A lot of us oppose the SIN of homosexuality, even though it was a SIN! before the 10 commands were given to Israel.
