You don't get to keep hiding behind your religion to get out of serving your customers if you are a business owner. You are doing business with the public. Learn how to deal with it.

Do you honestly believe that the person complaining about Philips actually followed through with another baker because he or she really and truly wanted that particular cake design? Elegant Bake Shop is 1 block away and Azucar Bakery is less than 5 minutes away from Masterpiece. Either one would probably been willing.

Bakeries, and the people who want their products, are not exclusive to high population density, metropolitan areas. For people who live in Yuma, Co. and the surrounding area, the pickings are mighty slim. Since they're in a very red part of the state, I'm betting the very few (two that I could find) bakery owners are religious nuts who will gladly trample LGBT rights if the asshole in Lakewood continues to get away with it.

These laws apply to all of Colorado, rural and urban. "Just go to another bakery" would work, in and around Denver. Out in the sticks, not so much.
