No, they are not. They reveal hypocrisy. One can be a "bigot" regardless of whether one acts to deny service based on that "bigotry." Simply put, your "outrage" over supposed bigotry is a lot weaker/ridiculous if you are bigoted yourself. Moreover, my questions are related to my original question as I'm trying to see whether you believe one who does not support the institutions I listed is a "bigot" in your mind. That is going to go to me ultimately challenging your definition to begin with. From your evasive answer, I assume that you do not support those institutions or do not believe that those who do not support such institutions are bigots, which shows how silly and petty the term "bigot" has become.

I don't claim that some people who opposed same sex marriage/relationships are not bigots (some people certainly are). But that is not the case for everyone in that situation; yet, people like you seem to apply that term to anyone who opposes that. For the record, before the RFRA law was introduced, passed, and amended by the Indiana Legislature, it was not illegal to deny goods/services to the LGBT community in Indiana.

Of course liberals are falling all over themselves like you 2 trying to be jerks. Carry on.
Never said it was my concern. I'm allowed to be curious, aren't I? Calm down Francis, I'm just saying that they've outed themselves, now nationally, as true-blue Christians and I'm curious what, as true-blue Christians, they will do w/ their new found windfall.

PS: Don't use numbers in place of words, it's juvenile.
PPS: Don't begin to assume that you know me or what I may or may not "despise".

Just imagine, if the churches would just put up a gofundme page, they will no longer have to pester the perishoners for mo money.

So, why is this amazing God saving the pizza place instead of the Christians were slaughtered in Kenya?

Ok, thanks. That was never clear to me (I couldn't locate anything regarding an end date, or just didn't search hard enough, regarding an end date).

Up to $812K now, and it is, pursuant to tax law, tax-free.

Much was made of this when Karen Klein, the bullied school bus monitor who lives here, was bullied and received $750K from GoFundMe. No tax was due.

I'm growing tired of these kick starter campaign for people that are already well off!
People can't keep complain about how Bad the economy is under Obama, then turn around and give $100 to a Homophobic Pizza owner!

They never "outed themselves".

Some liberal "reporter" and leftist news station and then idiot leftists ^ made it a national story. It's a nothing story that morons made a big deal out of and now, America has responded.


Oh, and don't dictate to me what I can or cannot do liberal clown. We aren't an entirely socialist country yet.
