Steve Shaw BS: Can't have your gay cake and eat it (440* d) BS: Can't have your gay cake and eat it 19 May 15


From the Beeb: "A judge has ruled that a Christian-run bakery discriminated against a gay customer by refusing to make a cake with a pro-gay marriage slogan.
Ashers Baking Company, based in County Antrim, was taken to court by gay rights activist Gareth Lee.
A Belfast judge said, as a business, Ashers was not exempt from discrimination law."

Excellent. The bakery was operating as a very secular business for profit, not a religion. The ruling recognises that you can't bring your skewed religious beliefs into the public realm in order to discriminate against people. Opposing gay marriage is what you can do by putting your case, not by undermining the law of the land. A blow for common decency.
