If you’ve directed that toward me, let me make it clear that I am not angry. You, on the other hand, do seem rather miffed and defensive. You treat sexual orientation as a matter totally separate from religion. Religion encompasses the issue of sexual orientation. The customer was refunded the money and I think even directed to a bakery that would be more accepting of the order. It was a respectable response. The customer’s response, on the other hand, was an over reaction and a transgressing of the limits of decency.

Actually, no i wasn’t referring to you being angry at all. I was talking about in general, I have seen people get angry when someone is discriminated on basis of religion or race. And I dont blame them.
what if someone refuses a Muslim because according to their religion, they dont want anything to do with someone whos going against the teaching of bible and committing a sin. they consider not being christian as a sin. would you think such discrimination is perfectly acceptable?
if someone can refuse service based on their religious values, then should be allowed to refuse for personal moral values as well. i understand a religious person is not comfortable with the idea of homosexuality, and maybe someone else is not comfortable with the idea of a black person ordering cake from his shop so then they should have the right to refuse service, refund the money and divert them to another baker who has no issues with black people. Or switch black with a muslim, chinese, pakistani, hindu, jew any other religion or race. does that sound like a respectable response?
