Refusing to sell store items to a gay couple = discrimination and should not be allowed

Refusing to make a custom item for an event you dont condone (gay wedding, etc.) = fine

This bakery would have refused to make the cake if a straight friend wanted to buy it for the gay couple also, so its not discrimination against the individuals for their orientation.

My contribution to the topic:

I work for a catering service now and we cater a lot of weddings. I can say UNEQUIVOCALLY that making a wedding cake IS an art form. It takes around 4 hours to make a generic 3 layer cake that serves as the base for a wedding cake. It takes 2+ hours more to decorate it. That 2+ hours is the difference between a standard good and what makes it a work of edible art.

I provided two witnesses to the God ordained marriage. You dont believe either of them.


No. I asked you to explain how those witnesses are claiming that God ordained all marriage. That isn't the same thing at all.

See Hebrews 13:8 which I referenced in the same post. If God ordained the first marriage, and generalized marriage in general, see Genesis 2:24, then all marriages were to be ordained by God. Since He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, there is no change. Argument by deduction.

Because you dont want to


Don't want to what? You aren't making any sense, are you high or something?

This guy got on the God ordained marriage as a tangent after I said take custom orders from anyone or dont take custom orders.

Hes not trying to make any sense.


Im arguing why take custom orders from all or none is inherently violating the bakers religious freedom.

Youre not making any sense.


The bakers religion tells him that gay marriage is a sin. The bakers religion tells him that knowingly participating in the sin of another is a sin. The bakers religion tells him to try to not sin. The baker, by providing wedding cakes to gay couples getting married, is participating in their sin. The baker is being told he has to sin against his religion or change his business model. This seems like a violation of his religious freedom.

God clearly does different things on different days. The creation of the world clearly shows that.

So take custom orders from anyone or take them from no one. Your theological rant isnt responding to that at all.


In other words, you want new provisions which supersede 1st amendment legal protections. I dont want a ruling which further erodes the religious freedoms of this country. Clearly you do.

Sexuality? So is a straight person or a gay person biased in this case?

Even if they were just looking for a payout, the only reason they would have a case is if the bakery broke the law

no the pos is just looking for an easy pay day. the shop isnt breaking any law.
did they refuse to sell cakes or not.

The State disagrees.

That's irrelevant as far as the State is concerned.

That's the question though. Is the state right?
