Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, Round 2

[possibletarian]

I wonder if he bakes wedding cakes for people who are on their second marriage. After all, divorce is expressly forbidden in the NT, and any woman who remarries commits adultery, so says Jesus.

Why do I get the feeling he only takes a moral stand against the queers and weirdos?

Second marriage could be okay if the previous partner died, but you are right, the very clear NT rule to not re-marry while the previous partner is alive is often conveniently forgotten by the christian masses.  And it would show clear discrimination if it is shown that he would bake cakes for second marriages, or at least demand an explanation of why he obeys one religious rule and ignores another for profit. If that can be shown then clearly they are picking and choosing what rules in the bible are suitable for them and have moved beyond the realms of religious conscience already.

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.

Either law is broken and there is discrimination or it is not broken and there is no discrimination.  Law's are always challenged when people make a stand against as in the case of a black woman who refused requests to give up her seat on a bus because she was black.

Rights are not won by giving in to discrimination, the baker runs a business the law states that all genders must be treated equally, so how does one fight for these rights?   They show the bigotry in plain sight of those involved, especially when it conflicts with the law.  The other matters you mention are not their fight, in fact I doubt there is anyone who fights for every perceived discrimination and to bring a whole host of lists of possible discriminations up really is just a red herring and to bring white supremacy up as discrimination shows a complete lack of understanding for the fight for justice.

To say you are wrong to fight for the thing that most affects you because you don't fight every fight, is like saying don't give to a starving man, unless you are willing to feed everyone who is hungry.
