Gays feel like they should be treated equally under the law...
Some Christians feel like they should be above the law....

Who is the group that feels entitled?

Both should be equal but both need to respect others religious conscience. When anyone wants to go against others and try to make them violate their conscience than they need to rethink what they are doing.

"Religious conscience" is not an excuse to break the law. If they want to only operate within their religion, they should do it at a church.

For the one hundredth time no one has said that! You just can't get it can you? We have tried writing it down for you, use it in examples and you just don't get it. It seems to me you have a very difficult time wrapping your head around logical reasoning. Well, same-sex marriage is here whether you like it or not. We won and you lost. No wonder the people who were trying to defeat same-sex marriage lost, they had the same mindset that you have.

Could you please spend 5 minutes learning what 'protected class' means?

It's amazing that in the 21st century in a first world country, that some people could still be so clueless about this.

It's only your statements that are silly, because you clearly don't understand what 'protected class' means.
