I wouldn't lump people together like that, and I have no issue with people's sexuality, my concern is solely governmental overreach.
I don't think a State setting minimum standards of conduct for public business is overreach...or unreasonable.
I wouldn't expect one of your kind to think that. It's part of your agenda to push your beliefs.
'My kind' doesn't put religious belief over general laws. Not Muslim Sharia or Christian Sharia.
Your kind thinks people should set aside their personal beliefs to suit you.
I think that its the responsibility of the individual to find a profession that matches their personal beliefs. If a Muslim wants force an employer to slow an entire production line in a factory so they can take a sundown break, I side with the employer. As I would if Steve Young had demanded the superbowl be played on a Saturday since his religion forbid him from working on Sunday.
If an individual feels that making a cake causes eternal damnation, then cake baking probably isn't the best profession for them.
Why should a person have to limit their profession over the chance of hurt feelings among a small part of the population? If there was some actual harm you may have a point.
In the case of the factory line there was actual harm being done to the companies production, and they still allowed regular breaks, just not the length and times the people wanted. And Steve Young was well compensated to violate any religious beliefs he had, and more importantly, he did it voluntarily, without any government force involved.
