Seun: There was a time when living as a black American was very inconvenient because most places of business would refuse to serve black people. Can you imagine going to a restaurant with your white friends only to be told that they "don't serve your type here?" Or a petrol station? Or to not be allowed to attend a good school even though your academics are strong? That's what America was like before the laws that convicted this man were created. It does a lot of damage to members of minority groups if people are allowed to refuse to do business with "their type".

This reasoning is flawed because discrimination against blacks was never at any time based on religion. Here, the man refused on religious grounds

I tink this is not a justify justice but rather " rubbing peter to pay paul" phenomena. Must the judge in the advent of gratifying justice tø one party becose of their so called gay right displease the other fellow citizen who is practicing his belief?.. I mean he owns his shop n he cant displease himself to please others.. If the ones with d reprobate minds find it offensive they should move to d next shop who will welcum them abi na by force?..
Just saying though=for ins ance here in NL mods ban people becos the do sumtin ofènsive..or spew rubish blame it on their home training or I.Q... So shud we nw say d mod is bias? Base on this assertions?.if he mod dint tolorate such ones nd ban them because hix incharge...so equaly the baker too refuse too because hix incharge too..abi kile risi? After all he has his right over his ownership..

Originalsly: I agree with the State. Once the baker opened his door to the public....then he can't pick and choose who to bake for and who not to bake for... that right has automatically been given up. Is this not the same as Blacks not being allowed in a restaurant because the owner doesn't like Blacks? ...or a taxi driver not picking up Blacks? ....or someone not given a job because of his religion...or tribe? Is this not the type of thing Mandela fought against...discrimination? ...or are we now burying Mandela as well as all that he stood for? I mourn for Mandela and now I have to mourn for the blind among us.
hey dumbass, you can choose not to be black, but u can choose not to be gay
Re: Baker Faces Jail For Refusing To Bake Cake For Gay Couple by MsNas(f): 7:12pm On Dec 10, 2013
Choosing to like gays is not by force, it is a personal conviction. That's why i don't understand why people wanna shove all these Gay BS down everybody's throat.

Last I checked, I was entitled to my opinion. I don't like gays, will never will. If you chose to be Gay, then chose to deal with the consequences. Don't go screaming wolf anytime people don't wanna do things for you because of your sexual orientation.

The way I get BS as an African and don't complain about it, is the same way they should dust off and go look for another baker.

I'm not justifying discrimination, but this isn't a perfect world. We don't control's people's emotions and orientation. I repeat...everybody to his/her opinion.

This gay thing is getting out of hand. All they do now is scream equal rights. Reminds me of this paranoid girl at work who thinks every look you give her means something cos she's gay. Nonsense angry She crossed my path, I put her in her place once and for all......everything doesn't revolve around you madam angry

U guys are just joining the white folk's band wagon with the way u are reasoning, its a shame that they think for u and u don't even know it. The white folks have hijacked the black ppl's struggle, equate it with gay struggles and u sank it in like u are not even thinking. Is it not ridiculous that every time they want to defend gay ppl they start to talk about blackness as if the black struggle has the same moral, historical, and political background as gay struggles.

I am not saying u shouldn't defend gay interests if u want but try to think deeper than what the white folks subliminally filter through ur consciousness. No one can equate my race, my skin color, my struggle to gayness, stop this BS. I don't need to convince anyone that I am black, u will see it. My race is not an orientation, its a race unquestionably who I am. Not the same thing with gays or is it?

And to u who said u were not allowed into a gay club, whats ur business in a gay club if u are not gay, did u not know it was a gay club? For ur information, I used to attend parties that are strictly for black guys and white girls, would a white guy scream discrimination if he was bounced at the club gate? Its common sense here. And if they said they don't allow Nigerians, there's probably was a case on it, have u found out?

How can anybody compare homosexuality with being black? This is seriously sickening! One is a race while the other is a sickening life style. @ Seun I hope you know that other sick minds in the US are also clamoring for Pedohp1lia to be recognized as a sexual orientation. That will be the day! Very soon they will start wedding children to these sick minds. Evil is slowly and steadily advancing and those who should know better are here talking about tolerance for evil.
The baker reserves the right to select who he wants to bake for. The business is his not the governments!
IF YOU ARE A PASTOR WILL YOU WED TWO HOMOSEXUAL MEN BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT SAYS SO?
Now the government wants to start controlling people's beliefs too. Does that not sound close to the kind of thing the antichrist will do.

History of Homosexual agitation in the US

PHASE ONE: Please decriminalize us , the government agrees.

PHASE TWO: Please recognize it as a sexual orientation, government agrees

PHASE THREE: Please let us have Civil Unions , the government agrees.

PHASE FOUR: Please let us have full Marriage Status, government sheepishly agrees again.

PHASE FIVE: Now you must force everybody to do our bidding!

History of Pedoph1le agitation in the US

PHASE ONE:Please recognize it as a sexual orientation, government agrees see here http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2013/01/many-experts-now-view-pedophilia-as-a-sexual-orientation-google-hangout.html

PHASE TWO: Coming soon

PHASE THREE:Coming soon

PHASE FOUR: Coming soon

PHASE FIVE: Coming soon

My people evil is gradually creeping forward, we need to checkmate it before we turn our world into a theater of the absurd!

These people with their evil agenda are becoming bolder and bolder. Don't be the silent majority whose silence allow evil to thrive. Our planet is degenerating, speak up for good.

Seun:
This type of discriminatory "beliefs" should not be tolerated. And frankly, there's nothing in the bible that says you shouldn't bake cakes for gays. Jesus allowed a prostitute to anoint him with oil, and he broke bread with a corrupt tax collector. How can baking cakes for gays be a sin? If Jesus was a baker and not a carpenter, I think he would have baked delicious cakes for gay people and used the opportunity to preach to them.

I don't believe that such an offense should attract a jail term; it may be more appropriate to take away his business license for a few months.

Most intelligent post!

Nope! The bible was even used to justify SLAVERY.

These two quotes were used for centuries to justify the practice of holding men and woman in bondage.

"Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling" (Ephesians 6:5)
"Tell slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give satisfaction in every respect" (Titus 2:9).

The bible was used to justify segregation, apartheid, and many more atrocities.

The law doesn't allow chirstians in some countries to preach or pray in public. Now the law has gone further to forcing christians into associating with pagan rites.

Why is the law protecting some (evil) groups and exposing some (christians) to persecution?
