you want us to think its ok for you to continue to be horrible.
Well then go be a homosexual then. I'm not trying to oppress you. Not baking you a gay cake wouldn't violate your right to choose to be such, and your self-determination shouldn't be impaired by it. Likewise, others have a right to self-determination as well, which includes Christians, Muslims, Atheists, or whatever other demographic you choose to be a part of. If a KKK member wanted me to bake them a "hate cake" I would tell them the same thing. Go somewhere else. But equally so, they have the right to vote, be citizens, and to their own self-determination. As long as they aren't bothering directly me or anyone else, I could give a flip about what they think or do because it has nothing to do with me. It's too easy to find another bakery that will take your money. Why not go there and give your money to someone who agrees with you and is happy to bake you your cake as you would like it made?
Suppose I were to start a business and put a big sign in the front window, 'Help Wanted - No Christians Need Apply'. Would you be OK with that? Why or why not?
