And yours aren't. You literally equated disagreeing with stabbing someone with a coke bottle shard with disagreeing with homosexuality.

People in here keep making the same erouneous argument that the baker refused service to the gay person because he was gay and that's just not the case, so at least be honest. The baker was willing to serve the gay person in any other capacity, but simply didn't want to bake a wedding cake which he viewed as a form of validating same sex marriage, something his faith was against.
If we can't even be honest with the particulars of the case, it's no use.
If a divorced person had entered the bakery and said," I want a cake celebrating my 3rd divorce and the baker would have refused, it would never have been an issue.

They aren't going to refuse that person.

They ought to be able to, if they so chose.

True, but Christians tend to view divorce and homosexuality on 2 different levels. Which I always found odd because one of them was directly addressed by jesus.

It's not odd for at least two reasons. One, divorced people can still procreate and same sex couples can't without outside help.
Two, there are divorces that are allowable biblically. There is no such thing concerning homosexuality.

That shouldn't be plural. There is one acceptable reason for divorce that jesus talks about.
Back to the original topic...I think the issue of a business refusing service if it's coupled with a reason (race, religion, sexual orientation) then it's discrimination and the government should intervene. If the business were to say they are too busy or not accepting new clients then the government has no business forcing them to provide the service.

I know your position. I disagree.

That's not very Christ like. Love your neighbor. It feels good.

Did Christ exhibit love when he walked into the temple and overturned the money changers tables? And then he made a whip and chased them out!
Should he have simply just winked at them and walked on by?
I can love my neighbor and still not condone or enable his/ her sinful lifestyle.

He seemed to be much harder on those who claimed to be his followers. They were using the temple and the Lord to turn a profit. Taking advantage of the poor. Quote," turning it into a den of thieves"
Once again, another thing jesus felt the need to address. But not homosexuality.

Mainline Christianity has always been very consistent on the Bible's teaching on homosexuality. All denominations have steadfastly concluded that the Bible is against it.
Only in very recent years have apologists and gay advocacy groups tried to reinterpret scripture to somehow give a pass on the subject focusing on the issue of love.
If you, for whatever reason are part of this group, that's your business.
I will never condone or encourage homosexual behavior.

I dont care. If it ends up hurting the business, they wont do it.
The only time i care about discrimination is when it comes to employment.
