If I were hosting a seminar on the health risks of homosexual conduct, and I walked into a print shop to have them print up some booklets to hand out at the seminar, and the printer happened to be gay and told me he did not want to print what he considered to be "anti-gay propaganda," I would simply thank him for his time and go find another printer. I would never dream of suing him or otherwise trying to get him in trouble. I would respect his beliefs and feelings, even though I found them absurd.
Why can't gays show the same tolerance and respect for religious vendors who find gay marriage offensive?
This is *not* the same thing as refusing to serve someone a meal at your restaurant or refusing a couple a hotel room at your hotel. Food, lodging, auto repair, home repair, things like that, can be viewed as "basic" needs that any vendor should be willing to provide, regardless of race, lifestyle, creed, etc.
It isn't about the homosexuals it Is about the Christians. Destroying the church is the utmost important thing for progressives
You give yourself far too much credit. It's about being treated equally. Christians are protected by anti discrimination laws in Public Accommodation at a Federal level...unlike gays that are protected at a state or local level...states rights guy.
They should NOT be treated equally. They are not equal. worse yet, they are a threat to normal people, and thus should be discriminated against in various ways.
The same thing was said about blacks, women, the Irish, American Indians....
protectionist is what the worst of America looks like.
What kind of a dumbbell post is this ? Of course it CAN'T be said the same about blacks, women, the Irish, American Indians. Those groups ARE equal in rights to everyone else because they are not ABnormal sex perverts, or abnormal in someway that endangers the public, as queers are.
And YOU CandyCorn are the worst of what America looks like. Just like the fools in the protests we see on TV holding signs that say >
"Religious freedom doesn't mean OK to discriminate" The sign is deceitful. The protestors aren't against "discrimination". They're perfectly willing to discriminate against those who wish to choose whom they do business with, and how. They're hypocritically perfectly willing to discriminate against those who wish to be free from homosexual behaviors and influences, which is proper and normal.
They know there will always be discriminaitons going on, in favor of some, and against others. They just are pushing to keep the discriminations to be
in their favor, and everybody else be damned.
