But should that be the standard for determining law and rights?


Yup.

Unless you are in favor of laws governing your morality. Which works out well in places like Saudi or Egypt (unless you are a non-muslim or a woman).

So as long as an individual isn't affected then they have no basis for supporting or opposing government initiatives?

No one in my family is red-headed. That doesn't mean I would be okay with government sanctioned mass incarceration of redheads.

Think you stepped in it there. You against against laws that law legislate OTHER people's morality. You are quite fine with laws that impose your morality.

For example, you think that government should force private business (bakers in specific) to bake cakes for ceremonies they do not agree with.

You hold that position because you think it is immoral for someone to discriminate. However you have a double standard for morality laws, only those you agree with should have the force of law.

You have religion confused with morality, which is understandable as they are so connected. I wager most of your political positions are based on moral suppositions. You just think they are superior because they aren't based on (your words) a "sky god."

Like you're one to talk about this.

You have absolutely no room and no leg to stand on to talk about this considering your well documented support of gov't forcing Christian shops to serve homosexual people they don't want to serve. You support the gov't discriminating against private action that does not hurt anybody, steal anything, or defraud/slander people.
