The latter, as the courts have already decided..is patently frivolous.

IMO, if this is what christianity is reduced to, if equality under law really is an existential threat to your faith in whatever it is you believe in...then christianity should just pack it up and quit.  It;s as dead and soulless as anything could be.  

You're standing here bitching about the anti-religious bigotry of a fucking protestant who suiggested that people should stop using their religions to hurt people as if that isn;t the desperate rambling of a loon whose lost his purchase on society.

-and christ wept.

I'm quite sure if I was as open about my atheism at work as some of my co-workers are about their faith, I would not have been promoted to the position/salary I have now at the very least, and at worst might no longer be working for my current employer at all. My plight is not nearly the same as what others face. But I don't live a life that is 100% free discrimination either.

Then you should understand the problem.  Maybe, just maybe, advocate for a system that gets us as close to 100% free of discrimination as possible..rather than carry water for discriminatory justifications?

You;ve had to keep who you are close to the vest to get promotions.  They would have had to do the same to buy a fuckin cake..and hey, you could both go elsewhere...but should you have to?  Your plight -is- the same.  A violation of one persons civil rights..in any way, is a violation of everyones civil rights.  We won;t get closer to that magical 100% until we all fully realize and appreciate this.

You're the one who's bitching and rambling. You're disappointed and butt hurt because the Supreme Court sided with the Baker instead of siding with the anti-Christian bigots in Colorado's farce civil rights commission and with the lower courts. Didn't happen the way you wanted because the bigots on your side of the fence got slapped down this time.
