And yet I thought this topic would be a discussion about how much cakes do atheists eat at holidays and I even scoffed myself for not opening this kind of lighthearted topic.
So you can imagine my surprise when I read FP.
Anyway, this is not the first topic about this and why was this about atheism? The thing is that the baker is Homophobic. He also thinks that Muslims and Jews and Buddhists and Hindus are going to hell and yet baked for them because it's about homophobia and not religion. He is simply using religion to hide his real issue.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
