I object, however, when they work so hard to impose those views, opinions, or beliefs on everyone else in society through the operation of our laws.
Yet again, Democrats do the same. You can't hold yourselves blameless. Sorry. These transgender laws in Colorado for example, schools in various places being threatened with loss of funding if they don't allow transgender students into the lockerroom of the gender they "identify" with. In reality, the imposition is far worse on the liberal side than could ever be imagined on the conservative side.
Gays don't criminalize your adult consensual relationships, so don't criminalize their relationships. Gays don't tell you who you can marry, so don't tell them they can't marry the person they love because it somehow offends you.
Okay, so gays shouldn't force themselves on hapless cake bakers and businesses who support traditional marriage. Gays want tolerance, so, they need to reciprocate with the same tolerance. They need not make Christians accept their way of marriage just because it's the law of the land. I find your argument thus far to be a double standard. This works both ways.
Why can't conservatives keep their noses out of other people's bedrooms?
The bigger question here is: Why can't government in general stay out of the personal aspects of everyone's lives? What about the kids in the aforementioned locker rooms who have to handle the trauma of seeing a peer of the opposite sex undressing before them? Why can't government respect their right to privacy in the locker room? Hmm?
Democrats and Liberals have a way with using the government as a weapon. Under the guise of tolerance.
Why can't conservatives who operate businesses in the public square serve all members of the public?
Why can't gays be tolerant of the conservative business owner's beliefs and look elsewhere? They aren't telling them who to marry at all.
Just bake the damn cake .... how hard is that for a cake-baking business?
Not as easy as you think. When you have someone who holds a deep conviction in their faith, you can't simply uproot that to make them tolerate you. The would be like me, a Christian, forcing an Atheist to read The Bible at gunpoint.
As an aside, would you make the same demands of a Muslim?
If you're intolerant, I will not tolerate your intolerance. That's a pretty simple concept.
And thus we come full circle. If you are intolerant of intolerance, you are yourself intolerant. Simple. You have successfully made a mountain out of a molehill.
