Bakery Faces Boycott for Refusing to Make Gay Wedding Cake

Curious how you see that this violates the First Amendment.

If that man's religion says he is to have no part in homo weddings, then the government cannot force him.
Just as the Catholics don't have to provide control as Obamacare says.

He did not refuse service to them based on their sexual orientation, he refused service to a ceremony that dies not exist in his religion.

So everybody else's religion can go F*ck themselves? That's how a lot of people read that. Fredom of Religion (only if it's christianity).

Huh? He's not keeping them from buying a cake, keeping them from exercising their religious beliefs (not sure which religion mentions wedding cakes as part of the ritual), he just refuses to participate. BFD.

Sorry don't have time to read all- but let's sticky this cake shop and make it the Official Cake Shop of COAR! Let's bust his business wide open and make him have to open another shop! I want the address- going there this weekend!!

Yeah... you're not going to get much traction with that statement on this forum.

Do you think he'd sell a wedding cake to someone that wasn't getting married, who just wanted some cake?

Since he sells other kinds of cake, one might wonder exactly who would want to buy a wedding cake specifically if they just wanted cake. I suppose that someone could order just a fancy cake, not specifically a wedding cake, and put the two grooms or two brides on top themselves. But the question remains, why bother? Aren't there enough bakeries in town where you could just go somewhere else instead of getting all butt hurt about this particular business?
