  Daily Mail Online "Sweet victory! California court rules in favor of Christian baker who refused to bake cake for a lesbian couple in 2017, citing her Christian beliefs - and adds that people 'shouldn't push any agenda against anyone else

  • A California court on Friday ruled in favor of a baker who turned away a lesbian couple who asked her to make a wedding cake in 2017
  • Cathy Miller, owner of the Tastries Bakery, celebrated the new win on Facebook Friday in a post on Facebook thanking followers for their support
  • Tastries Bakery has fought several legal battles now regarding the refusal to bake a cake for a lesbian couple 
  • Miller allegedly politely gave the couple an alternative baker in the area to go to for their wedding cake 
  • She also said that the situation would have been different if the cake was already made but that the act of making it specifically for them went against her beliefs 
  • Judge Eric Bradshaw said in his decision that baking a cake is still protected as 'pure speech' and considered artistic expression ". . . 



 "A California court ruled in favor of a Christian baker Friday following a years-long legal battle after she refused to bake a custom cake for a lesbian wedding in 2017, citing her religious beliefs.

""We applaud the court for this decision," Thomas More Society special counsel Charles LiMandri said in a statement. "The freedom to practice one’s religion is enshrined in the First Amendment, and the United States Supreme Court has long upheld the freedom of artistic expression."

"Cathy Miller, a cake designer who owns the popular Tastries bakery in Bakersfield, California, won what her lawyers at the Thomas More Society called "a First Amendment victory" when Judge Eric Bradshaw of the Superior Court of California in Kern County ruled against California's Department of Fair Housing and Employment, which had brought the lawsuit against her."
