And you need to grow up and learn the difference between socialism and democracy.


You act as though it is impossible for the latter to vote itself into a least a perverted version of the former. You don't believe these people should be allowed to exert ownership control over property they own and operate a business they own upon. You clearly believe that society should have more say in how they operate than they should as the actual owners. You don't believe they should be even allowed to do business with people they choose to do business with, that is up to society to decide too. How is that not a socialist viewpoint? Your opinion seems to stop just shy of full-blown socialism, but it is certainly not in line with the views this country was built upon. I'll stick with my "perverted socialism" term, until you present a better option.

Gays marrying violates the owner's religious beliefs, the government should not be trying to force them to give up their freedom of religion solely so some gays don't have hurt feelings. This is massive overstep, IMO, and kowtowing to the gay agenda.

And at a time not too long ago, black and white marrying violated owner's religious beliefs. And I ask you, how did that violate people's freedom of religion then, and does two gays standing in front of a bunch of people, saying some words, and making out, violate people's freedom of religion now?

This is violating no ones freedom of religion. It isn't in the practice of Christianity to actively undermine other people's contrasting beliefs, and even if it was, US law wouldn't allow you to refuse business to them based on that.

I'm going to leave you to TeLeFaWx. He enjoys shredding weak arguments.

You didn't read the thread before jumping in with your preposterous assertions. Except for the socialism shite, all of your comments have been addressed.
