Supreme Court Rules In Favor Of Colorado Baker

[Angrboda]

But more to your question, the reason it makes a difference is because when it comes to art, the artist creating it should have final say in what exactly goes into the creation of it and what does not go into the creations of it up to and including not creating it at all. Under no circumstance should the government nor any law dictate what the artist is required to create.

In what way was the same sex couple denying the baker artistic control? This whole 'art' objection seems a massive canard. Is there something artistically different about a cake that ultimately ends up at a same sex wedding and one that doesn't. I haven't read up on the specifics, but I don't recall any actual evidence that the same sex couple was placing any restrictions on the baker's artistic choices. If the baker's artistic choices extend to decisions about what will happen to the cake after the sale, I'd say the baker has no more right to dictate that than a painter has a right to dictate where I hang a painting after they've sold it to me. If the art objection is to hold any teeth, I think there has to be some essential way that a cake destined for a same sex wedding differs, artistically, from a cake not so destined.
