The court said: "Because his cakeshop does not have a religious purpose, he is not protected by the religious exemptions in the state’s nondiscrimination law."
What religious purpose do you see existing in a bake shop? If there is none, you have no reason to discriminate on the basis of religion.
Yep. Either that cake walks on water and heals my fibroids or I'm not really buying the excuse.
Respect the Law? It's not even a Law in Texas. It's a new law, and the intolerant left tells them hey change your way immediately or lose your career. That's pretty cold hearted.
What does Texas have to do with this? The case is in Colorado.
No, what's cold-hearted is treating gay people like dirt.
Fine, then create a law where business owners do not have to get involved with with gay weddings if there is a religious objection. That's really the only point of conflict here. All your examples are necessities in life and should not be denied to anyone. A wedding cake is not.

I don't see how telling someone politely that they don't service gay weddings equals treating someone like dirt. Forcing Christians to pay ridiculously overblown fines, cursing, destroying their business and threatening their lives? Yeah, that's treating ppl like dirt.
Of course, we should bow and submit to the almighty gay agenda, huh? I wouldn't be surprised if Christians are executed in the future if they dare preach against homosexuality.

What about other people the bakery hates? Shouldn't they also be refusing to serve Hindus, for worshipping another god?
Freedom of religion doesn't exist in your version of the Constitution huh?
Of course it does.
We've already been over and over this. The bottom line continues to be that my rights end where yours begin. I don't get to violate your rights because of my religious beliefs, and vice versa. That is as it should be.

You're such a drama queen. The gay "agenda" is to be treated like everyone else.
