At the minute gay marriage is illegal. So he would make a gay that supoorts
a illegal thing.
If he was Muslim nothing would happen. Or if he went to a bakery owned by
gays and wanted a gay to say “marriage is between a man and a woman” and if
he was refused nothing would happen. Also marriage is between a man and a
women, civil partnerships are for same sex marriage.
Screw LGBT what more rights do they need?
The persecution of Christians is startling. Homosexuals could easily choose
a bakery owned or operated by a homosexual or establishment that’s neutral
on this issue. They are usually easily found. But instead they choose
Christian bakers specifically to shut down the competition. This is an
attack on what they see as their ideological adversaries and they mean to
destroy them. Sadly as inept purveyors of inequality and tyranny, the
government aids homosexuals in their hostile attack.
The only way to fight against these wicked people is to boycott business’s
they own. Give them a taste of their own medicine and stop helping to fund
their attacks on Christians. The government can’t force us to buy their
products…yet.
In America no group should be able to force there views on others. Everyone
one knows Christians don’t support gay marriage…. So go else where! I
don’t care what people do as long as it doesn’t effect me. Wanna be gay? Go
ahead! Want me to say its normal? No….I don’t agree….and I have a right
not to.
I said the same thing to the guy wanting gay bakery’s to right gay marriage
is wrong! So I don’t even wanna hear it!
I have an idea gay people get your pro gay stuff at gay bakery’s!
Christians get your anti gay stuff at Christian bakery’s! Everyone keep
your views that offend people to yourself or with others that agree with
you!
This is America we are suppose to be free to differ on things!
What is taking place now is not coincidence. I believe many of these
attempts are just to get Christian businesses to violate their conscience,
or better still, to get a high court to settle case law that would favor
the homosexual activists.
I believe this is a good thing. It will evidence who truly is Christian and
who is not. We are to obey all laws of the authorities.
Submission to the Authorities
Romans 13:1 English Standard Version (ESV)
13 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is
no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by
God.
HOWEVER, Obey God Rather Than Man
Acts 5:29 English Standard Version (ESV)
29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.”
The authorities had commanded that the apostle and disciples stop
witnessing about Jesus, and even locked up the apostles. The response was a
definite precedent, “We must obey God rather than men.”
We obey all laws of the authorities and pay our taxes, but we do not obey
laws that go against, contradict or violate God’s Word.
During World War II, Some Christian groups refused to say Heil Hitler
(meaning “Salvation we owe to Hitler), for which they were thrown into
concentration camps, many losing their lives. Many Christians were in these
camps long before the Jews ever arrived. They remained steadfast unto death.
Will the modern day Christian go to jail for his beliefs, lose his business
for his convictions. We will see. This move is going to separate the chaff
from the wheat, i.e. the pseudo-Christians from the real Christians.
HAVING SAID all of this; we still deal with all people with gentleness and
respect, seasoning our words with salt.
1 Peter 3:15 English Standard Version (ESV)
15 but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared
to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is
in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,
Colossians 4:6 English Standard Version (ESV)
6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may
know how you ought to answer each person.
Canada is 64% Racist and 36% Diverse.
Australia is 69% Racist and 31% Diverse.
Europe is 82% Racist and 18% Diverse.
The U.S. is 62% Racist and 38% Diverse.
END RACISM NOW!!!
WE NEED MORE DIVERSITY!!!
– Anti-racist logic
“Diversity” means chasing down the last white person.
It’s White Genocide.
“Anti-racist” is a codeword for anti-white.
“You don’t get to pick and choose your customers.”
It seems that the sodomites feel that straight people should be their
slaves.
But I say that we should have the freedom to choose which private contracts
we would and would not enter into.
Gay’s hate straights. Yet straights are forced to respect gay’s? Doesn’t
make sense to me
Private businesses retain the right to refuse service to anyone If he
doesn’t want to bake a gay cake, no one SHOULD have the authority to force
him to.
What a bunch of retards! Marriage has always been a legal institution, not
a religious institution! It has all to do with forming alliances and
uniting families, and transferring the woman’s dowry. It first took place
in villages and then moved to the doorways of churches to then inside the
church. The presiding priest was much a civil servant as he was religious.
Are you able to chose business contracts based on skin colour? I hope this
homophobic bakery goes bankrupt. I doubt it though, considering the sheer
amount of stupid xtians who will probably support this nonsense.
I’d love to see them try this at a Muslim bakery.
The church did not create marriage so why in utter goodness does it now
believe it holds the right to define it?
Baffling. So utterly self righteous and blindly bigoted.
No business has the right to refuse service to anyone, unless the customer
becomes rude, malicious, or destroys property. Christianity is a human
religion, God NEVER promotes any kind of religion, so your christian
beliefs have no standing in God’s eyes.
Anyone else think that the general manager is a closet gay?
Belfast Christians can be Christian in running their businesses, but the
fact remains that BAKERIES ARE NOT CHURCHES.
Let’s see how JESUS CHRIST thinks Christians should run a business:
1. Be humble, a servant of all, compassionate, kind, forgiving and generous
2. Do not cast the first stone unless you are righteous
3. Bring those who do not want me as their god before me and slay them
If Christians in Belfast wish to employ Old Testament strictures, then they
must adopt all of them.
1. Brides who are not virgins must be stoned to death on the steps of their
father’s house (hymen check!)
2. Men may have as many brides as they can afford, concubines, too
3. A woman who is widowed must marry her husband’s brother, no arguments
4. Children who disobey their parents must be stoned
5. No cakes for masters wishing to marry their female slaves, or female
slaves promised to another man
6. Incest is A-OK according to the Bible: Abraham and Sarah had the same
siblings, Cain and Abel had children by Eve or their unnamed sisters (yes,
Creationism is the story of INCEST), and Lot’s daughters had sex with him
to get pregnant after the family left Sodom and Gomorrah
Then there are kosher laws, men’s beards, mixed fibers, women’s
menstruation, and so many other rules by which to abide. Christians are so
slack in their observance of God’s laws.
WHATEVER happed to ‘we reserve the right to refuse service’? That USED to
be the norm here in America….these homosexuals are DELIBERATELY doing
this so they can sue and garner attention, obviously…WHY don’t the courts
recognize this and dismiss it straightaway?
Sorry to say but your username sounds a bit offensive, as a supporter of
gay rights it’s not something that I really agree with.
What about religious freedom?
“The Equality Commission”. Straight out of 1984.
Should Ashers Baking Co turn down the concept of paying a wronged customer
compensation?
Should an Equality Commission from an alternate Earth future be allowed
access to this reality?
Should the Christian Institute and pro-Ashers alarmists play God in
assuming future decisions as fact, and their decisions go unquestioned?
#whatthefuckisyourobsessionwithbinaries
you dont get served the cake try another bakery or bake your own,those
people have the right to refuse service just like bar people when want a
drink.just get over it.dont make an issue out of it..
more victims of the homosexual plague. goddamned poo pirates.
where would our horrible world be without sodomites who harras those
terrible hard working christian folks with morals, just what the world
needed more sodomties drawing the line and comtributing so much to
society.sodomites want to destroy the very fabric of our society with there
wicked perverted lifestyle.the very bible you all use in court to convict
the thief is the very bible that says sodomy is a sin. why should a thief
go to jail if he steals your car,why is he guilty when you allow sodomy to
rule the very courts that operate on the bible which in its entirety is the
WORD OF GOD. you sodomites steal from hard working people everyday trying
to sue for money its all you want is someone elses hard earned money.i
wonder what percentage of you actually work jobs and contribute to your
country.
good for ya irish , stick to your guns
What if a homesexual baker was asked to make a cake that said ‘marriage is
between one man and one woman’?? He should have the right to refuse to go
against his belief.
The Ashers bakery has the right to make a cake for whoever it wishes to. Im
sure they sell their cakes to gay or lesbian people all day long. Their
being asked to create a one off cake which promotes an ideal they don’t
agree or believe in.
Just go to another bakery who will make the cake they their looking for or
make it themselves.
Surely a business cant be dictated to and be ordered what to make?
A private business, that provides an optional service, has every right to
refuse to cater to an event that goes against the owner’s principles
It was made out like the gays were wanting some huge cake advertising gay
sex with porn images and shit. It wasnt. It was a very simple cake with
puppets on it saying support gay marriage. Thats all. Whys the bakery
getting all high and mighty and refusing to make it? Its a fucking cake!
They will NEVER see that cake again. And then to bring religion into it?
Where in the bible does it state being gay is wrong? What exact quote is
there? None. Why? Because believe it or not God doesn’t give two fucks if
your gay your still his creation! You answer to nobody but him. Im a
Catholic and support gays. I think it’s wrong that their treated like they
spread disease and are to be avoided. For all the people in this comment
section ask yourself this, does it affect your life if someones gay? Does
it physically stop you doing things like shopping, eating, washing? Its
their life, they have the same rights to get married in a church and to be
legally man and man or wife and wife. This whole religion shit does my head
in. I havent been to church in over 4 years. Yet a gay person could be
there everyday but its alright for me to get married in a place ill never
visit again? The bakers call themselves chrisitain? Christianity is about
following in the footsteps of Jesus and loving others as you love yourself.
They should have just made the thing but instead they refused and now have
a court case and have damaged their reputation. Well done.
You cant buy this type of publicity. Ashers have their heads screwed on.

STAND YOUR GROUND BAKER against the gay nazi agenda
Perverts wrecking peoples lives. There’s a greater law out there than man’s
laws.
Need to stop this cherry picking guys. You serve fornicators / thieves /
people who wear mixed fabrics / people who eat shellfish .
What a bigoted prick this owner is, I hope is business is ruined and he
loses everything.
I may not like the baker…..but fuck he is fit.
Homosexuals are the new Hate Group, and more active than the KKK, neo nazis
and all other hate groups combined. What a sick, perverse, and obsessively
hate driven group of wackos.
The thing is, the baker took the order and accepted payment. Only later did
they suddenly get religion. The news article seems to have omitted that bit
of information.
Tony Sabine you are a twat of the highest order.
The Romans had the right idea with the Christians.
Unless you are a PUBLICLY HELD company on the STOCK EXCHANGE, you should
NOT be forced to do the bidding of the homosexual or any other movement. If
the BLACK PANTHERS came into a White Owned Cake Shop, or the KKK into a
Black Owned Cake shop, do you think they would be forced to make cakes for
them??? No this is about HOMOSEXUAL PRIVILEGED BEING FORCED ON AMERICA AND
THE WORLD!
Homosexuals are a far greater danger to society and children than
Christians, and no I am not religious, but I will side with the greater
good of humanity, and queers are NOT for our greater good!
