Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, Round 2

[RoadRunner79]

It seems that for the left lately, that they are not against discrimination at all.  It is all about who is being discriminated against.  They even promote it, when it is against someone that they don't like.  They point to the law only when it is on their side, and condemn it when it is not.  You say you are for freedom of speech, but despite the false narrative, that is what this baker is claiming.   That it is not about who, but what and why he is refusing a specific job, that conveys a specific message.

So - hypothetically - if this same baker were to refuse to craft a cake for a black wedding, claiming that he interprets the Bible in such a way as to believe that black people are subhuman and anathema to God - you would support him on this being a free speech issue?

I don’t think that anyone is saying that anyone else is “sub-human” in this case (nor am I).

And I think that we should be very slow to have the state dictating what is conscionable for a person. I also think as (I have stated before) that one would have a difficult case making this argument on the grounds of the history of the Christian faith and the Bible. It may have been tried at times, but it has no foundation holding it up.

It’s also, not about discriminating against the person. As you seem to try to make it to be.
