LGBTQ Mafia strikes again: Christian baker ordered to bake cakes for gays

[breakingcontact]

America 2014: Christians and Christian businesses are being persecuted.

Baker forced to make gay wedding cakes, undergo sensitivity training, after losing lawsuit | Fox News

For you church goers, how long do you really think it will be before Bible believing churches are driven underground? Professing biblical beliefs will be considered hate speech very shortly I fear.

*Nope. I don't hate gay folks. I hate their sin. If this baker refused to make a cake that a married guy was buying for his girlfriend I'd be fine with that too.

How is this even "legal"? Are gays a "protected class" now like the disabled?

I'd refuse. You have every right to deny service to anyone for any reason. I don't have any problem with gays except for the tactics like the open carry people here: shove it down your throat whether you like it or not. You want to be gay, go ahead. You want to open carry, go ahead. As long as you don't force it upon me, then do whatever makes you happy. HOWEVER, once you start forcing it upon me, then we have a problem.

Not a church goer, but I'd like to weigh in with my heathen libertarian view.


This is complete BS. A business owner should have the right to choose who they serve on any basis they see fit. Be it race, religions, sexual preference, dress code, etc.


I don't believe this is an attack on Christians, but another attack on real freedom and individual rights.

Catch is, the courts in Colorado are forcing it on this guy. He has to fill out paperwork annually to prove he is compliant.

He should tell them to piss off and call in the militia when the govt shows up to arrest him.

I understand that, but I'd still refuse. Fight it up and up through the courts if need be. It's an erosion of our rights as citizens of this nation. If someone doesn't want me in their store because I'm fat, then they have every right to that. Just means that I won't spend my money there and I'll do my best to persuade others not to spend their money there. Let the free enterprise system work.

I'm with you, I agree completely. Problem is, gays have succeeded in becoming a protected class, to the detriment of religious rights.

He should bake them the worst cakes they'll ever eat in their lives.

This is indeed an attack on a businessman but its because he is a Christian. Its also an attack on free speech.

Its insane. I really need to understand the claimed legal reasoning here, it must be this whole protected class business.

Filling out quarterly paperwork to stay compliant is just a bit Orwellian no?

Hell yeah! Dogshit and Splenda cakes with Balut flavored frosting.

Then he will have to pay for gov taste testers to ensure its not of subpar quality.

Pretty much agree with this. The bill of rights and equal treatment etc. is supposed to be applied to the government, not to private individuals or businesses.

I do think some nondiscrimination legislation had its place but it's long since past.

Suddenly my dream job of being the head cake quality control manager doesn't seem appealing.

Should a Jewish or Muslim butcher have to sell me pork chops?

they should have to sell you anything on their menu

For the record, same-sex marriage is against the law in Colorado.

Seems the State is violating the anti discrimination law and a better place for the gays to focus their energy instead of on sweets.

I hope Phillips has the means and support to fight this.
