Naming your son Gareth is a virtual certainty.
This has to end. The queers cackle with glee while the rest of us are miserable, depressed and paralyzed as we can’t flee it or fight it.
That is a copyrighted image that cannot be duplicated , the baker is being asked to commit a crime (a small one) ,, on that basis he can refuse.
This particular one was a no-brainer. The baker should have just said he doesn’t do copyright infringement.
See, this I don’t get. It is obviously a political message, done for a political reason, why would this be a case in the first place? Are people in Northern Ireland not able to decline based upon content?
Oh, right, it’s extra special because it’s gay.
‘I’m sorry, we declined the content that the customer wished to put on the cake. It was not something we wished to be associated with.’ Defending it with religion is just.. painful. It is like you have to justify it, which shouldn’t be the case.
Being denied the cake of his choice from the baker he chose for predatory reasons does not make him a lesser person. Throwing a juvenile hissy fit and pouting over rejection makes him a lesser person. Trying to compel a free person to act as a slave and work against their deeply-held beliefs makes him one of the most evil people alive - definitely a far lesser person.
I think these bakers, florists, photographers, etc., are being left out to dry. It’s shameful.
First of all, they are NOT strictly obliged to refuse to make these cakes, provide flowers, or take photographs. Gay weddings are a farce. But those who cater them or serve at them in various ways are not participating in, or even facilitating, the commission of the sin of sodomy. Sodomy is already taking place between the new “partners,” and it will continue without regard to the baker’s, florist’s, or photographer’s participation in the “wedding.”
A Catholic florist, baker, or photographer is not morally obligated to refuse his services to people who are for any reason (e.g., an existing bond of marriage) not able to contract a valid marriage.
What is most disgusting is that these people ARE taking what they believe is a principled stand, and are receiving no support—not even rhetorical support. They are standing up for the truth, while the vast majority of Catholic bishops and other clergy are cowering under their desks.
“Northern Ireland’s Equality Commission...”
These Nazi pricks have names and addresses.
At least we’re not being carted off to the coliseum, to face down lions.
So there’s that.
Sodomy — it’s all about force.
