If liberals get their wish, a Muslim baker can be forced to produce a cake bearing this image:

When you make silly claims about Liberals/hatred, while illustrating the same behavior you denounce, it leaves you twisting in the wind.
But thanks for demonstrating the point perfectly. Textbook example.

Pretty obvious how it works...as opposed to how it's supposed to work. Selective issue Christianity is getting a foothold in this country. That doesn't mean it's 'how it works'.
This can all be settled by asking the Pope to weigh in.

You most certainly can. You just can't make it a political issue. Simply cite scheduling, or price yourself out of the market. Or worse yet, take the contact info, and simply never call back.

You're illustrating the silly nature of the defense. Not all artists are commissioned to create pieces. Nothing forces an artist to paint anything that they don't want, unless perhaps if their business model entails art for hire.

That was my thought. But both sides are making a statement here. In the end, the baker loses out on quite a bit of business.

right on, fuck the tattooed......and while you're at it go after the atheists who misapply scripture for political reasons......those bastards really suck ass.........
fully immersed in faith..
no.....in favor of the baker's constitutional rights......you are so confused.......perhaps if you hang around here long enough it will fix that.......
fully immersed in faith..
seems like a solution offers itself......if cakes aren't art the baker should be free to make as ugly a cake as he wants.......

I guess you missed the part where the baker would have been fine selling them a cake; he refused to make a custom cake that was against his religious beliefs. Dunce.
You might need a refresher on the First Amendment.
"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.

No, I pointed out in earlier posts that these artists had shops sold art to the general public, and also commissioned unique pieces just like the cake maker. Saying that they cannot be forced to create the original pieces is exactly my point, but the guy who makes original wedding cakes can is dichromatic and hypocritical.
Like Jarod, I believe that the SCOTUS is likely to rule that artists cannot be forced to create a piece of art against their own wants, let alone religious beliefs and the cake maker will again be able to sell unique wedding cakes, but not against his will and/or beliefs.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Maybe they could write a code on their paperwork to let them know not to rent to er... I mean bake a cake for black people.

I think what we're discussing is similar to applying hate crime status to a crime.
Nobody is ever forced to do anything that they don't want to. They just have to be mindful of what is, and what isn't considered discrimination. I don't think anyone is allowed to refuse service because someone is black.
In fact, trump knows a thing or two about that
https://www.upi.com/Archives/1992/10...1911719467200/TRENTON, N.J. -- The Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino has lost a bid to overturn a $200,000 penalty imposed because managers catered to the presumed prejudices of a high roller by removing a black dealer from his table.
