Again, a word spluge with no meaning. Try harder
Nah, you just don't want to reconcile the fact that your religious argument in favor of bigotry is tripped up by its own rhetoric. God forgives and Jesus died for your sins, yet God won't forgive some redneck baker for baking a cake for a gay wedding? That makes no ******* sense at all. Much like every Conservative belief there is.
Government getting involved denies free exercise
Free exercise of what? Because I'm pretty sure it doesn't say anything about baking cakes for gay weddings in the Bible. And I thought God forgives and Jesus died for your sins...sooooooooooo that's not true then? Someone should tell that to the billions of Christians who appear to have been hoodwinked.
the burden is on the government to prove a compelling interest, and then if it is found mitigate the situation in a manner that is least intrusive on the party losing said right.
Already done. 1964 Civil Rights Act. NEXT!
Not everything has to do with commerce, despite you idiots using it to get away with bullshit like denying free exercise.
This specific instance has everything to do with commerce, so here you are, exercising sophism to pretend that denying a wedding cake to gay people isn't a commerce issue, when it is nothing
but that. And why wouldn't God just forgive the bakers for baking the cake anyway? What's the answer to that question? I thought God forgives. Apparently that forgiveness doesn't extend to baking cakes...in which case, why would anyone worship a God who wouldn't forgive you for baking a cake? Seems pretty ******* stupid and bigoted, doesn't it?
The concept of State sovereignty in certain areas is the crux of federalism under our system. Again, if you want to change it, that's what the amendment process is for.
Ahhh, see here comes the goalpost shifting. So your argument moved from one of nothing
but state sovereignty to one of sovereignty "in certain areas". What those "areas" are is unspoken, probably because you recognize you need to give yourself broad parameters in order to argue with someone who has a clear thought about this, where you do not.
Whiny little ***** move, there.
Or you just realize a contracted service that is non time sensitive and non-essential isn't a PA and doesn't mandate government interference.
The CRA does not make such distinctions, nor should it. A public accommodation is a public accommodation regardless if it's contractual or not. And that's what the courts have all upheld.
Homosexuality is seen as sinful in most major religions. It is what it is, and these people are protected from government malice via the free exercise clause of the 1st amendment.
Well, good ******* thing we aren't a theocracy and thus, cannot legislate morality along religious lines. So it doesn't ******* matter what the child molesting-covering up religions do or think. None of that shit matters when it comes to the law. Your religion doesn't supersede the law no matter how much you want to make this a Sharia state.
Again, don't like it? Amend the constitution.
Reminder: you're the assholes who want to amend the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
