Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, Round 2
RE: Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, Round 2

I would say that baker is discriminating against the person, and not the event itself, since there is no association between graduation and religion.

Are you suggesting the government should be in the business of deciding what is and isn't a legitimate religion? Because I can see all kinds of wrong with that.

So, does he..as a cake baker, have a moral objection to baking cakes......?

LOL.... no I don't think that he has a moral objection to baking a cake.  And in the other case, he specifically said that he would sell them something else, so it is not about the person either (I'm unsure if this was the case here, but I would assume).

If I recall correctly, he also objected to selling lesbians cupcakes. Jack Phillips is a very troubled man.
