Re: Colorado Judge: Bakery Owner discriminated against gay couple [W:123]
This is not a victory for the good guys but more BS from the thought police advocates.
Bigotry is and will be tolerated in peoples private affairs because they have the right to be.
If one is a public servant working for government then such rules may apply but private business has every right to refuse service to anyone.
Besides this is rather like the idiots who support socialized medicine. Why would you wish a doctor to treat you with a gun to his head? One " accidental " slip of the scapel and guess what?
Basically the same logic applies here. The guy is making baked goods for people to eat and you want to force him to do so? Think some gay couples might now get the worst cakes the guy ever baked? Or maybe one with a little urine in it?
The smarter move would have been to boycott or even advertise against him and let the market work.
Neither you nor this baker have a monopoly on understanding christian principles they are fairly subjective and he has the right to live within his interpretation of them just as you do. Although his are probably more accurate to the teachings of the book which christians believe in.
The ruling in is. Chalk another one up for the good guys
Colorado judge: Bakery owner discriminated against gay couple - Washington TimesA Colorado judge ruled Friday against a bakery owner who refused to prepare a cake for a gay couple’s wedding reception.
Administrative Law Judge Robert N. Spencer ordered Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, to “cease and desist from discriminating against complainants and other same-sex couples by refusing to sell them wedding cakes or any other product [he] would provide to heterosexual couples.”

Another ruling that bigotry will no longer be tolerated in America. If this baker is truly concerned about his religious beliefs....perhaps he should start by trying to be more "Christ-like" and try living the principles that Jesus Christ taught.
