You and I both know this has nothing to do with cakes, cakes are just a symbol for the real issue, an attempt to uproot religion and biblical morality from the world

Morality in the world is not dependent on any one book or religion. And certainly it is not dependent on what you've been preaching the past three days.
You can't make a commentary on humanity without convicting yourself as well. Does your particular sect require to you look for the bad in the world and the worst in people or did you come up with that all on your own? My mom's Christain sect is like that. They bias people toward searching for the bad and overlooking the good.
Nope, the broken promises of the LGBT community did that, including those that were put in to law in order to pass LGBT bills, and years later were completely removed, limited etc.
How many broken deals, should tell me they as a community are all liars.
Take for example the evolution of the nyc gay rights bill for one, koch put in a paragraph of protections to soothe foolish religious Jews, Catholics, protestants etc. Without this the bill fails. 30 years later almost to the day bdb got rid of it.
Like I said before. Religion doesn't give you a free pass. You still have to work within the law. If your religion breaks laws guess which way it's going.
Then there is no such thing as freedom to exercise religion.
In my mind, it is just as discriminatory to allow special privilege as it is to deny it. The world has changed a lot since the days of prohibition so I don't know how good of an example that was. I'm sure the Chruch of Satan would have demanded equal rights as far as alcohol but they were probably deep undercover then. I think the Pastafarians are making progress on the head covering one (ramen).
Edit: It seems the Catholics got the loophole started.
Let's say a Christian non kosher restaurant said that they refused to serve to Jews because they believe Jews have to keep kosher, I would support them 100%.
You really believe one persons religion should be allowed to control customers. You support removing my rights as a customer to buy what is legally available to others to please your sense of religion. I think you can no longer plead for religious freedom if you are so willing to remove it from me or folks like me.
By the way I think the closest kosher restaurant is at least a 3 hour drive each way but probably more like a ten hour drive each way. And no kosher butchers and I didn't even know about kosher bakeries until this thread. And the town I grew up in had at the most 9 Jews, maybe only 8 as the eldest son of one family may have moved on to university by the time my younger brother was born.

Biblical morality such as genocide, treating women as property and slavery? Punishment for working on the Sabbath or death to unruly children. Thankfully our morality comes not from the Bible.
What do you do if you come upon a witch? Doesn't your book tell you that you cannot leave her live.

My store my choice.
Until I sell it I own it, I should have 100% rights to do whatever I want with it. Why should you have any right to decide what I do with my property or who I sell my property to.

In my book there is a thing called trials and due process of law.
