citing passages in the Torah specifically forbidding gay sex.

So that sort of clinches it for the baker, imho...

Lakewood NJ out of nowhere is now well over 100,000 in population.

Let’s just say that reform and conservative can’t pull off that kind of growth among their “faithful”.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakewood_Township,_New_Jersey

Lakewood Township is the most populous township in Ocean County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. A rapidly growing community, as of the 2020 United States census, the township’s population was 135,158,[11][12] its highest decennial count ever and an increase of 42,315 (+45.6%) from the 2010 census count of 92,843,[21][22] which in turn reflected an increase of 32,491 (+53.8%) from the 60,352 counted in the 2000 census.[23] The township ranked as the fifth-most-populous municipality in the state in 2020,[24] after ranking seventh in 2010, and 22nd in 2000, placing the township only behind the state’s four biggest cities (Newark; Jersey City; Paterson; Elizabeth).[25] The sharp increase in population from 2000 to 2010 was led largely by increases in the township’s Orthodox Jewish and Latino communities.[26] Further growth in the Orthodox community led to a sharp increase in population in the 2020 census, with a large number of births leading to a significant drop in the township’s median age.[27] The Census Bureau’s Population Estimates Program calculated that the township’s population was 139,506 in 2022,[11] helping the fast-growing town surpass Elizabeth as the fourth-most-populous municipality in the state.[12]

If that's what you believe I'll not nay say you.

Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

A rainbow is a bow pointing toward heaven...what’s not to believe here—why are you disputing—??? Not getting it.

“Kosher Pride treats”. Well I suppose that if you’re doing something that God calls an abomination, you’re not going to care if it’s kosher or not.

As a Jewish Russian emigrate told me many years ago re the Liberal/Left, “We too have our asses”.

Looks like that group has expanded. So sad to see the Orthodox collapse like a popped bag of air. Same for my Conservative Jews.

Reform. Always on the Left. Seem to ignore the Torah when ever it is convenient..

We must be tolerant but that doesn’t mean we have to abandon our core beliefs.

You can be assured that NO ‘liberal’ bakery would make or be forced to make MAGA cupcakes and no one would be allowed to question that.

Couldn’t you just order rainbows without mentioning the dreaded gay?

A rainbow is a bow pointing toward heaven...

A rainbow is a bow pointing towards Earth FROM Heaven.

--- "It's odd; the Jewish community habitually votes Leftist...."

Actually and as with the schism in Protestant denominations, the Orthodox support conservative causes most often and, as the word says, liberal Jews support liberals. To the edge of apostasy and beyond. Like some Christian denominations.

Uhh...don’t know...but a bow is curved, and a rainbow is a multicolored bow that appears after the rain and directs one’s gaze towards heaven...perhaps you might just explain what you’re getting at instead. The Socratic method can be tiresome.

An imaginary arrow shot from a rainbow would go heavenward. How is a rainbow pointing earthward? Isn’t that the reign of Satan?
