It's a two way street. Suppose I am a baker. A Right Wing Fundamentalist Christian preacher by the name of Pat Robertson walks into my place of business and orders up a sheet cake with the words "Gay Marriage is an Abomination!" What am I going to do? Well, I'll tell you. I'm going to tell the sanctimonius S.O.B. to act like a goose and get the flock out of my store. That cake is an insulting slap to my face! It is my right to defend my way of life without someone trying to insult me and cause me harm. So guess what? I get sued by the legal team of Regent University.
The Ashers also have a right not to have their moral convictions upended and shoved in their face. Justice is not served when they cannot defend themselves and the Appellates have told them just that. "Mr. and Mrs. Asher, you have no rights. You must make that cake no matter how personally offensive you find it to be. If you believe your going to hell by icing that pastry, tough noogies. Your feelings don't count!"
Come on people …fair is fair.

Relevancy is relative. It depends on which side of the pulpit you stand.

How ingenious. I especially like the cat-apult.
