If I understood correctly, the baker had no trouble baking that couple a cake, he just does not want to make a gay wedding cake ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- I've heard this before, but it doesn't seem accurate to me. As I understand it, it was more along the lines of, I don't want to make you a custom wedding cake. Oh, and we only do custom wedding cakes. Oh, and by the way, you are an abomination.
Their argument was that any cake they produced would have been a custom work of art that inevitably would have expressed a message of celebration for same-sex marriage.
The issue is contentious and I can see how you can argue both sides. But let's not pretend that they offered to bake them a cake, just not a wedding cake, because they didn't. They quoted Leviticus to one of the bride's mother, saying that a man lying with a man is an abomination (this was for a prospective lesbian couple).
