Sorry bud, I;m immune to the koolaid.

They agreed that a couple of admins in the proceeding were mean to the bigot in ways that could justify action.  End..of story.  Yes, the wingnuts are giddy because the weakining of civil rights -in any way- is their holy grail..and yes the wingnut left is equally interested in pointing out that this is an effective, if not actual.,.weakening of civil rights.....but wingnuts gotta wingnut, as you well know.

Until such a time as you actually manage to get anti discrimination laws written off the books...why don;t you start a hateful christian cake club?  Until then you're going to have to follow the law, no matter how upset it makes you to be forced to treat gay people like human beings in the tiny sphere of commerce.

What they did decide...was that state agencies, public office holders, the courts, etc didn't have the right to pick and choose who gets equal protection under the law. The precedent is that intolerant anti religious bigots can't discriminate based on a person's religion. 

Yeah, sorry dude. There's a lot of alcoholics and drug addicts who will deny they have an addiction problem. You can deny it all you want but you're addicted to the koolaid.

They agreed that a couple of anti religious bigots in the proceedings injected their religious intolerance when making their determination. End of..story. And the left wingnuts are all butt hurt 'Chicken Littles' over the Supreme Court decision, running around and screeching, "Civil Rights are weakened! Civil Rights are weakened!".....when actually, nothing was weakened. Nothing was taken from gays. It's just that the bigoted anti Christian wingnuts are disappointed that the Supreme Court decided that a governing body and the courts can't discriminate based on a person's religious faith.

...and you're going to have to get used to the fact, no matter how upset you get, that people of faith are also guaranteed equal protection under the law.
