I find it fascinating that Christian bakers would say that catering a gay wedding would violate their rights because their religion doesn't support it.
Lets think about that for a moment. A Christian baker catering weddings. With huge cakes, lots and lots of food, usually an open bar, sweets, excess food and drink.
Wouldn't all that violate the Christian belief that gluttony, one of the 7 deadly sins, is wrong???
Defined: Gluttony, derived from the Latin gluttire meaning to gulp down or swallow, means over-indulgence and over-consumption of food, drink, or wealth items to the point of extravagance or waste. In some Christian denominations, it is considered one of the seven deadly sinsa misplaced desire of food or its withholding from the needy.
So, unless that Christian baker is baking a tiny, minimalist sized cake, and then spreading all the excess cake around to the needy, and demanding the excess food and drink be made available to the needy.......wouldn't they be violating the belief of their religion, since gluttony which occurs at EVERY wedding is occurring in the baker's presence?
Hmmm. This should be interesting.
