Stop reverse discrimination!

The bakers who refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding are victims of reverse discrimination.

This article made me ponder about the bakers in this case and their religious beliefs.

Had the request been for a cake only, that was alright.
The bakers declined only because they objected to the message that was requested to be put on the cake. The bakers declined this because it was in violation of their religious beliefs and practices.


The message of the Word of God says to love your neighbor,
and it also says to turn from those things spelled out clearly to not be just, righteous,
honorable and true according to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 

Supporting marriage between a man and a woman is honorable, according to the Word of God.
Supporting marriage between two men or two women is not honorable, according to the holy scriptures.
1Corinthians 7:38 
Hebrews 13:4

What is honorable?

The baker being sued for discrimination was wrong.
They were within their religious rights to decline a clear support of gay marriage.

If the cake had to have the words,' support gay marriage' on it, I guess the customer could have added the wording at a later time outside the bakery.

To claim discrimination against anyone who does not support a lifestyle which isn't theirs is reverse discrimination.
In this case, that would be saying supporting gay marriage trumps anyone who doesn't support gay marriage.
It's discrimination to forbid or keep any person from practicing their religious beliefs even in their place of work. The bakers weren't halting the gay marriage from going forth. The baker was discriminated against for following his faith which is in his right to act upon. 


Can we respectful others who are not of the same beliefs or lifestyle?

We really ought to communicate cordially and tactfully with each other even if religious and lifestyle differ.

The world is full of people of various lifestyle practices and religious beliefs.
The courts would be packed full of discrimination cases if every time you met 

with someone who chose to not join with you on your beliefs or lifestyle.

When a conflicting situation arises, take one's business elsewhere.
Why force someone to go against their faith?

I don't hear Christian's screaming, 'Discrimination!'
