If I make a cake with two lesbian dolls drinking alcohol on it, what happens?

The issue is about the plastic toppings.
Please show from the court records where the cake decorations were ever discussed. In both cases the customers were turned away BEFORE any discussion of what the cake was to look like.

OMG!

The SUBSTANCE of the cake?

Transubstantiation?

Not transmutation?

Sounds like gaming the agenda to me.

Well, if that doesn't make the cake!

Let them have cake!

You asked me a question, I answered. No need to give me an attitude.

This thread has MORE to do with DOUBLE STANDARD, very less to do with

1. Should gays get married
2. did you attend a gay wedding?

There is a double standard. If you don't agree, we can agree to disagree. But no need to throw a temper tantrum. We all have our different opinions. As a retailer whose family owns several retail stores, yes, I am curious about this type of subject. No more, no less.

By the way, I am all for gay marriage, but I also know there are many different types of people living in this world. live and let live, if they don't want to serve gay wedding cakes in their bakery, let them or make a compromise, everybody would be happy. Muslims don't want to serve alcohol, fine, christians don't want to sell gay wedding cake, it should be fine too. Just find another person who is willing to do business with you, what is the big deal?

What I am passionate about the government roles in this type of situation. I don't want to give government any more power to butt into people's private businesses. Let the businesses make the decision because the real decision maker is free market. The only loser in this situation WILL be the baker eventually because they are limiting their market. But let free market decide their fate, no need to ruin other people's businesses simply because they are "different." (for lack of a better word.)
Well I guess you are admitting to making a mistake when you said Christian bakers don't bake gay cakes.

As for the double standard, I said the Muslim should have to do the job hired to do. Though it is up to the employer if they wish to with an employee who doesn't want to do their job.

No one will bake it or transport it. But we'd all be interested to see what that cake actually looks like.

No, I don't know what you are talking about. (the bolded)

Never mind though, no need to argue anymore. Religion, itself, is a boring subject. I have no problems admitting I made a mistake if I actually made a mistake, To me, it is not a big deal. But I honestly don't know what you were talking about.

So you are saying you didn't post this or you didn't know what you were saying in your post?
