  Indiana "Religious Freedom" (right to discriminate)

  sickening to see the photo of the religious zealots all stood around the governor signing into law the right for people to discriminate against others (gay, lesbian, trans-gender) based purely on religious dogma.. if religious people want those freedoms then the can't have it both ways - they cannot complain if *they* are discriminated against.. "sorry, we don't like zionists, get out".

  "oh, it's some special mass and you can't work your shift?

  you're fired!"..

  I am not the least bit upset--in fact I would be surprised if you werent that way at all. I realize you are an atheist, and in being so, this is to be expected. If you were supporting me, talking decently to me, and not resorting to name calling, then I would know that I was in the wrong.

  you are poor example too--you preach tolerance, then when someone holds a view different from yours, you resort to name calling--you are a hypocrite.

  By the way, I never said they all were like that, just the ones I have met, and the ones who are working on the agenda--the non-political ones, not so much.

  Wow, you are so filled with hate! You can't even allow someone to disagree with you without going all ballistic and name calling.

  Well I guess I can only go on my own experiences and what I have seen with my own eyes. I think my fornicator scenario summed it up well---this was separating the act from the person. Christians are called to help others and feed the hungry--not to participate in events that grieve a just and mighty God.

  I will feed anyone who is hungry--gay, straight, whatever, but I will not participate in an event that I believe is totally against God. Which means I wouldn't support a gay marriage, planned parenthood, the KKK, the Watchtower, and several others.

  Vivianne, there is a difference in feeding people and feeding their agenda.

  As for baking cakes for fornicators, well I guess if someone came to me and wanted me to cater their unwed daughters "losing her virginity" party--well I probably wouldn't cater that either.

  The thing is most christians I know would be the first to feed anyone who was in need. The liberals are all about show and if it doesn't fit their agenda, they wouldn't feed anyone. The gays I have known would step right over a homeless person in a ditch to get to their gay pride meeting or political action forum---leaving the poor hungry person to be fed by the christian.

  DJS, some people have convictions that aren't up for sale--it is rare nowadays, but there still are some.

  I am pro-life, and I would also refuse to cater to any planned parenthood event too.

  Some people have convictions, and others blow as the wind blows, and sell their soul for a buck.

  I will adress one aspect about the Bakery case. In this instance they would have their hand specifically in the event, also not to forget the photographers who have been sued for not filming a gay wedding. There is a difference in baking a cake and selling it to someone or refusing to sell, and making a specific cake with a specific message on the cake (whether it be 2 female cake toppers or 2 male. or congratulations Lisa and Maureen) the difference is one selling a good, where the other is more like catering to a service.

  Put yourself in someone elses shoes--suppose you have JW's that frequent your business, you gladly serve them cakes, then one day they want you to bake a cake and put on it (Happy 140th anniversary Watchtower Society) I am sorry, (well actually I am not), but there is no way I could do such a thing, and I would have to speak up out of religious beliefs that I can not cater any event that celebrates the longetivity of the WT Society. I could not in any way shape or form be a partaker in anything that promotes the WT Society. For as ever much how wrong I believe the Watchtower is--there are just as many people who believe that gay marriage is just as wrong and don't want any part of it.
