Does the 1st Amendment guarantee rights to a pile of bricks with wooden pews and an altar? Or does it guarantee rights to individual Christians? You already know the answer to this so it's a rhetorical question.Bake the fucking cake. You aren't a church. Thanks so much.
His right to be a Christian is completely unaffected. It's a business not a church. If he doesn't like our rules he can go do something else.
But his rules are dominant to "yours". The US Constitution has the final word. And this will be scathingly clear to you very soon. There is no language whatsoever in the US Constitution which protects a minority deviant sex behavior subculture to use duress to force Christians to abdicate their faith in order to enable what is effectively a cult, to use the vehicle of marriage to spread throughout normal culture..
If there were these protections for deviant lifestyle practitioners, polygamists could also already marry and adopt kids. But they can't; which is a conflict and violation of the 14th Amendment. Long story short, Scalia was right: Obergefell is a legal quagmire and a rat's nest of false premises and conflicting laws. I think he actually called it "judicial voodoo" or words to that effect.
It was an illegal decision, arrived at with no less than two of the Justices coming out publicly beforehand to say how they would cast (which is also disallowed). It was actually an empirical decree instead of a court opinion. It was an attempt by the Judicial Branch, specifically 5 liberal-pandering Justices, to write new language into the US Constitution without permission of the governed, and to force massive social change (a contract that banishes children involved from either a mother or father for life) on 300 million by a power-grab. It must be revisited or the foundation of American law is in trouble. I still believe it's what killed Scalia just a few short months after it was announced....with his scathing dissent on record. He of all people knew the depth of the dark implications such an act had on the foundation of our democracy.
