" 'Civil rights" have now become preeminent over freedom of religion. That cornerstone freedom has been eroded by the belief that "social justice" is being denied protected groups because Christians object to the gay lifestyle and gay marriage. "
Rick Moran "A 9 year old who wrote a letter of support to President Trump that was read by Sarah Huckabee Sanders at a press briefing last month said that his mother had to bake him a MAGA hat cake herself because she couldn't find a baker who would do it." . . .
. . .
"An example of freedom of speech exercised by the bakers? There certainly aren't any national organizations fighting for Dyan's right to have a cake honoring his political hero.
"This is unlike several bakers who have been sued by LGBT activists for refusing to bake a cake for a gay wedding." . . .
“Similarly here, cake shops declined Pickle’s order for conscience reasons,” Mr. Farris wrote in a blog post on Thursday. “Yet, no one on the Left is calling for legal action against the cake shops. And neither should anyone on the Right.”" About the only difference between political objections to baking Trump cakes and a religious objection to baking gay marriage cakes is the Civil Rights Act. And it isn't so much the act itself, it's how the law is being interpreted and the declining importance in the eyes of the American legal system of religious freedom." . . .
“The fact is that these cake shops have freedom of speech,” he continued. “They have the right to decline to use their artistic talents to celebrate events or promote messages that violate their beliefs, even if it offends a nice little kid.”
Except perhaps when Sharia Law is demanded in a democracy?
