And those bakers violated our State Constitution.

From Wikipedia:

Craig and Mullins visited Masterpiece Cakeshop in Denver to order a custom wedding cake for their return celebration. Masterpiece's owner Jack Phillips, who is Christian, refused to bake the cake on the basis of it going against his religion.[2] While another bakery provided a cake to the couple, Craig and Mullins filed a complaint to the Colorado Civil Rights Commission under the state's public accommodations law, the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act, which prohibits businesses open to the public from discriminating against their customers on the basis of race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation.[3][2] Colorado is one of twenty-one U.S. states that have anti-discrimination laws against sexual orientation.[4] Craig and Mullins' complaint resulted in a lawsuit, Craig v. Masterpiece Cakeshop.[5] The case was decided in favor of the plaintiffs; the cake shop was ordered not only to provide cakes to same-sex marriages, but to "change its company policies, provide 'comprehensive staff training' regarding public accommodations discrimination, and provide quarterly reports for the next two years regarding steps it has taken to come into compliance and whether it has turned away any prospective customers."
Masterpiece Cakeshop vs. Colorado Civil Rights Commission.
No, you only love yourself as you use this whole event to promote just yours by using the abomination.

To justify anything you say you must first disparage your grandfather who would have of you disowned.

For your grandfather was right as that when the races were separated they were not always at known.

What were they like well all you ever hear about is how bad the white people are as they were for then.

If so bad then why must you so readily insist they continue to congregate together if not even Christian.

It might be bad enough of how they treat each other with jealous spirits of each other what need apron.

So who's the slave the person who is free of guilt you aren't for you are a hypocrite of white nationalism.

The same argument used against black people had successful businesses in the South when segregation.

You don't think a black person can do without a white master looking over his shoulder when transaction.

That's right you're a hypocrite who likes to talk a lot about what you know is a lie already of commission.

To dishonor your very own grandfather so opens you are pathetic you still don't seem to understand non.

You honestly think God sees it as sin if someone gets out of an abusive marriage? Divorce is allowed in the case of a partner being unfaithful so it only stands to reason that divorce can be allowed for even greater sins. Also, Romans 7:2-3 clearly states you can remarry if your spouse as died. So there are various reasons why a person might have multiple marriages. It's not the baker's job to dig into their personal business and find out if the reason is sinful or not.

Abuse is not a scriptural reason for divorce and/or remarriage. Biblically there isn't really any abuse unless it is the wife doing it to the husband. A wife is to be in subjection to her husband. Widowed is a Biblical reason for remarriage.

You should read and study first.

Its not polite to make such assumptions about the Lords instructions.

Trouble ensued.

So, you can see that the Christian bakers were all OK with making a cake for people that were most likely adulterers by literal Biblical definitions, but they refused to even discuss further the proposed cake design for the two women.

Put another way, they had no problem ignoring a violation of the Ten Commandments, but put their foot down at a sin they disapproved of.
you are unfairly applying a double standard which you have no clue even exists

You assume sin is taking place instead of giving the benefit of the doubt. Interesting

I once met the author of the first article on domestic abuse to appear in a major national magazine. The article was published in 1975. That's only 42 years ago.

Before that, wife-beating was swept under the rug, and part of that was because of "wives, be subject to your husbands", without a doubt.

Offhand no. I didn't learn it from a link. I studied the greek word definition, and where it's found in the bible. Usually I use bible gateway.
It is just from my personal study but with porn being all over, especially the soft core homo porn, we are all being "groomed" essentially. With this sin being so celebrated, it's inevitable it will grow as time passes. Anyhow I better stick to the OP.
"People aren't gay. There is no such thing." WTF? Who are you, and maybe you should become a little more educated before you say such nonsense.

Are you speaking from personal experience, having had strong female-female sexual attractions in the past, but now you're "all better"?
