      Kennedy said he was wary of paving the way to businesses denying service in a way that would be "an affront to the gay community." But then he said the Colorado civil rights commission showed "hostility to religion"

          If the Court decides it’s ok to discriminate against the LGBT community because it goes against a religion, I want to have my business not sell to Evangelicals because they are a cult which goes against my religion. #GayWeddingCake

          Should a doctor or nurse be allowed to refuse a person based on their sexual orientation?

          No and no one has ever suggested that.

          It’s interesting to bring up sexual orientation RE: hospital care: during the AIDS crisis in the 80s, patients were refused care by medical staff due to ignorance of the illness. Christians supported this. Recently a pastor suggested that killing all gays would end AIDS. WTF?

          You know that most Christians are not like this extremist moron. Being against gay marriage is not hateful. It is a mainstream belief.

          I agree with this statement. So people that do not believe in religion have no say then? If you are going to go into business you have to serve everyone. The whole right not to serve BS is over drawn. That should be only when someone is drunk!
