how does the owners personal religious views dictate who's money is good enough to accept in the public square during the course of business.
It has nothing to do with money being "good" enough, that is an attempt on your part to wrongly paint the wishes of the owners as bigoted.
The owners should have the right to dictate the events that occur on their own property, including the type of wedding permitted.

So its impossible to be gay and be Christian...who decides that, you, these owners, since all 'Christians' are cherry pickers of some or all of their religious institutions.
This has nothing to do with the argument and is instead an emotional appeal based on your own hatred of religion.

seriously...the owners are telling the couple, 'no we wont take your money because you are gay and we are bigoted'...that is exactly what they are telling them.
you cannot discriminate at a business, its that simple.
Had the owners just politely refused service because 'they were booked' this couple could do nothing but since the owners said 'because you are homosexuals'...that is defined discrimination and its not legal under any pretext or under some form of self deluded righteous authorship.
My point about Cherry picking is...religious views are stupid. Why take one passage from the Old Testament and hold it above any other...the answer is because its suit them, the selective hypocrisy allows them to feel comfortable about their bigotry under the guise of religious convictions when its blatantly obvious they dont kill their kids for insolence or become unclean for wearing two different types of fabric next to one another.
Why is okay for the Christian majority to assume they can do that and not be held in some form of contempt and ridicule in light of such obvious hypocrisy.
