Homosexuals "wrecking" Christian careers

Except that you want to deny some the liberty of not recognizing someone elses marriage.

Sure don't. You can personally not recognize gay marriage all you want. By all means, go ahead. But when you try to inflict your personal morals on everyone else and enact that into law, that is when there is an issue.

The issue is that if you say something bigoted, or try to enact a bigoted law, you can't cry when people call you a bigot. And just because your view has a religious base doesn't shield you from the label of bigot.

Back in the 60's, this same issue was happening with interracial marriage. People cited the Bible (Deut 7:3-4, Lev 19:19, Ezra 9:12, etc) and claimed it 'violated the sanctity of marriage' or some such nonsense. Biblical support or not, those people were bigots. History repeats itself.

You can think whatever you want. If you believe that gay marriage is a sin, don't marry a dude. Just don't cry when people are rallying against your ability to foist your morality on everyone else.

Why should the CEO of Chick Fil a be required to recognize gay marriages? If you prevent him from doing that, then you are infringing on his liberties.

Again, no one is saying that he shouldn't be allowed to have those views. He can personally not recognize whatever he wants, be it polygamist marriages, gay marriages, whatever. But to say people shouldn't be allowed their reaction to his views is ludicrous in its own right, and infringes on those very same liberties you are declaiming.
