    Playing devil’s advocate, here: if the baker wanted to be a complete d!ck, he could make the cake and decorate it in the traditional man/woman motif. Then, he couldn’t be sued for refusing to serve a wedding cake, like he does for his heterosexual customers. Plus, they’d be stuck paying full price for it, as most wedding cakes are pre-paid.

      Sorry to say this, but that’s not playing devil’s advocate. That’s just lateral thinking. Playing devil’s advocate would be putting forward an argument in favour of the views that you disagree with. Whether you agree with the couple or the baker, your comment isn’t an argument in favour of the other side.

        I stand corrected.

    Seriously, someone should explain to them (and all of the people in a similar situation) the principle that says that they can refuse to do something different for the gay couple (like put a two-guy statue instead of the guy-girl one) but they can’t refuse to provide the exact same product they would have provided to anybody else. That’s the underlying principle. If they’re Jewish, they can refuse to do a cake in the shape of a swastika for a nazi, but they can’t refuse to make a cake for a nazi. If they’re racist, they can refuse to do a wedding cake with a black couple for the statue, but they can’t refuse to make a wedding cake for a black couple. And if a liberal baker is asked by the RNC to bake a cake for their conference, the baker can refuse to print pro-RNC, anti-Democratic messages on the cake, but they can’t refuse to bake a cake.

    If that’s not good enough for them, they need to get out of the wedding cake business. They can go for the “conscientious objection” argument… but it was never a get-out-of-jail-free card, those who went for that when it came to war had to spend their time working difficult and risky civilian jobs as a substitute for being a soldier. They certainly didn’t get to go on with their lives as usual.

      Well said, if I may add another caveat…

      A religious or philosophical objection is only available to those who operate a non profit, like a church. If you are a for profit company you have only limited options as you described above

      • Glen July 9th, 2015 at 00:25

        Even non-profits have the same fundamental rules applying. But it only applies to paid services.

    What these people seem to keep forgetting when they throw their lifestyles in other people’s faces is this: their religion is a CHOICE!

      Just like the gay couples have their choice of bakers? Refusing gay customers is different from refusing to put certain things on your products.
