    So that leaves the state as guilty as asher's, and if one political opinion, and that's all it is since there's no gay marriage (yet), is sacrosanct, surely the opposing opinion is just as valid, and worthy of protection.

    Do you know of a case where a gay baker refused to put a Christian message on a cake. . . ?

    Are you about to tell us about one?

    Anyone know of any gay Christian bakers? I'd love to hear their thoughts on this matter.

    Wow. Legal fees for this so far - a remarkable £88,000, making our money saving efforts look a bit poor and pathetic. Particularly since we paid for it - that would have been almost enough to buy everyone in Belfast a slice of cake.

    Yes, you'd really rather they just didn't discriminate in the the first place...

    Or maybe people should get over themselves when other people apologise and respectfully decline to do something because it goes against their longstanding religious beliefs?

    Ironic that the state itself doesnt "support gay marriage" yet some poor sod trying to run a business has this crap landed on them.

    Sore losers I think.
    Far more important matters in this world.
    God loves ALL humans? Isn't that right??
    What do Christians do if one of their family is gay??
    So many questions I can never get answered....
