and the Baker didn’t even deny service to the homosexuals. He offered to bake them cakes just not a custom order cake.

Christian baker forcing him to undergo sensitivity training

The commies seem to be more honest and call them Re-education Camps. The 1st Amendment seems now to be null and void. Political correctness trumps 1st Amendment rights.

If this was my livelihood I might have to move someplace else, but at the rate things are going there won’t be anyplace else in the United States to go to before long. If this baker feels able to do the right thing and resist this fascist tyranny I would want to support him.

The idea of the government being able to order “sensitivity training” because one’s religious values don’t fit with the official doctrine is obscene. This is one consequence of leaving the education of our children in the hands of Leftists.

He should memorize all the scriptures condemning the sodomites and share them at every opportunity.

Sensitivity training indeed.

So how will the courts rule on the refusal of Mars as they have refused to sell a knife company their ‘special’ m&m’s) This must be one of those tiered laws bow-boy is touting in Hawaii. Re-education camps = the future of Gitmo?

Hopefully a reckoning with the intolerant secular progressives who want to take all liberties away from people of faith.

"The order says he must report on any orders — whether it be a cake or a brownie or cookies — turned away and the reason for doing so," said Martin, who explained that the commissioners had, at one point, suggested that Phillips provide a log of every single transaction highlighting the sexual orientation of the customer.

Dear Lord. Really???

I missed the part about loading him and fellow Christians on cattle cars, but that is probably on the next page.

This is revolting.

These orders do not apply to gays and other minorities or whoever the left deem so.

For instance a gay printer could refuse to print church bulletins and fliers, these civil rights commissions wouldn’t even take that case for review.

As far as I know, being black is not a lifestyle choice, and a black person is most likely not doing anything that would warrant a business owner’s decision not to further associate with that person. So, in that case, an argument can be made for having the law step in if the business owner refused to serve a black person based on the person’s race and no other factor.

Whether a person can control being gay—which is still under debate—he or she can certainly control the behavior. And just because a gay “couple” wants to pretend to marry does not and should not give them any right to compel others to play along with their fantasy. It is a totally different situation than being black, which is beyond anyone’s control.

A recent idea from another Freeper, sorry, I don’t remember who it was, is intriguing.

His idea was to post a sign which stated that the entire proceeds of a wedding cake baked for a homosexual wedding would be donated to a Christian cause which supports traditional marriage.

In the name of the homosexual couple!

The Civil Rights Movement really harmed liberty when they forced people to like other people no matter what.

That's it! You stated succinctly, exactly that which are all the troubles and problems with the Civil Rights Movement!

Liberals think that writing a law makes everyone like each other! Problem's solved, we wrote a law! But, when that doesn't work, just like always, they write ANOTHER LAW or read into the first law rules and limitations that where never there! Instead of letting nature handle things, they attempt to constrain and guide - NATURE! IDIOTS!

And HOW will the commission enforce it?

How will the commission know the training has actually been done?

That went away when it became illegal for businesses to refuse service to someone because of race or ethnicity. Now they add a new protected category — Sexual Orientation.
