Crystal Allen and Kenyata White were refused service on religious grounds by AffordableWeddingMinister.com -Wedding ideas, wedding sites, wedding chapels, wedding planning, wedding songs, wedding locations, wedding venues, wedding receptions - a one stop business that provide ministers and wedding and reception planning services. It advertises "religious and non-religious ceremony choices".

Wedding planner rejects same-sex couple. Is it discrimination? - AZ Central

The ministers at AffordableWeddingMinister.com are ordained by the Christian Glory Church:

ChristianGloryChurch.com - Fast Minister Ordination
"Be legally ordained today to do weddings, baptisms and other religious services.
The total cost is this one time fee of $83.00 for the clergy startup pack.
We ordain for life and there are no additional fees or renewal fees.
No need to buy any additional supplies from us because we give you everything you need to print your own with your computer."

I expect a surge in business as businesses try the "ordained minister" ruse to deny services to gays.

Marrying gays may be a good business startup.

I do not see the problem..if a person does not want to marry gays because of it going against their personal convictions,leave the person the hell alone and let him marry who he wants to marry..I do not see the malfunction here.

In Phoenix, sexual orientation (not "homosexuals") is a protected class.

So much for the Big Lie that they "just want to love who they love."
