[QUOTE="SoonerDVM, post: 2232365, member: 7961"] Personally, I think the gov should stay out of that, too. If a business owner is a raging homophobe, racist, and misogynist, I'm not sure we're doing anyone any favors by forcing him to serve or hire those he hates. I mean, if you were gay, would you want to eat a cake that person made for you? However, since the gov is [I]already[/I] involved in that stuff, then I believe the same discrimination rules should apply. If it would not be ok for him to say "I didn't want to make them a cake because I don't believe in interracial marriage," then it's not ok to say the same about gay marriage. I wonder if that baker who's too Christian to make a cake for a gay couple has ever made a cake for an atheist couple? EDIT: Or a couple who's already pregnant? Or a couple who's each on their second wedding? Because, unlike homosexuality, Jesus actually talked about adultery, and he [I]really[/I] doesn't like that. [/QUOTE]
