There is nothing arbitrary about the standard being set forth.And we take your "big picture " to it's logical extreme then we can justify any discrimination by ironically truly arbitrary means.Guess we should through civil rights out the window.

Anyway, there is no distraction, as I personally wouldn't have a problem making a gay wedding cake. It isn't about that. What I'm trying to show here, is that when we start legally forcing people to make cakes to celebrate events/causes they strongly oppose, we start running into problems.
We don't do that, so what's the problem?  Assuming we did do that..however, what if the problem that created was even bigger?  Like..say..people used your own rhetoric to justify widespread discrimination?

Well...... golly gee, Polly..that's exactly why we have civil rights laws!  We shouldn't need to have them, people shouldn't be recalcitrant douchenozzles...but they are.
The " Big Picture " looks pretty ugly huh ?
