Umm… so requiring shop owners to not discriminate against LGBTs is the same thing as forcing them to convert to being LGBTs themselves??

It is forcing people to do something against their conscience.

You see it as discrimination, but I'm not sure that is an accurate description given the fact that people are targeting religious bakeries and forcing them to do things they are uncomfortable doing.

What if it was an arranged marriage in Mexico between a 60 year old man and a 12 year old girl? And they wanted your bakery to do the cake. Would you object? Would you be discriminating if you did? Is discrimination a bad thing in that context?

Edit: I didn't down vote anyone. And the people outraged that I am comparing homosexuality to pedophilia are missing the point. For many cultures arranged marriages with very young girls are the norm. You are claiming moral superiority with nothing to back it up.

That kind of argumentation sounds very similar to that of people who opposed the end of racial discrimination. What if these people feel uncomfortable making cakes for black people? Or, to make the analogy even more fitting, for interracial couples? Should they have the right to deny making a cake for an interracial couple?

What if it was an arranged marriage in Mexico between a 60 year old man and a 12 year old girl?

Not a fitting analogy. According to a very brief google research, this would be illegal in Mexico since the age of consent there is 16 and can only be lowered to 14 in Chihuahua in cases where the girl is already pregnant.

just for the record, your comparing what in most countries is consider pedophilia with being gay. dont really think those two are the same things.

also, religion was used to discriminate and segregate blacks in the south during the 1950s, do you think this is a proper use of discrimination? and if not, what makes that different than today?

I'm sorry, I really cannot take you seriously with that username. It's just... wow.

I'm not even surprised.

You're just making a cake. No you don't object and yes it is discriminating if you do. You don't have to agree with someone's lifestyle to sell them goods. Now, if the person asked you to write something offensive on the cake, that's different. You wouldn't bake/serve that cake to anyone so it isn't discrimination.

Edit: If you're going to down vote, at least have the courage to post your objection.

Actually, that is completely false. Case in point is the famous "No Shirt. No shoes. No service." sign and philosophy most places of business enforce. The beauty of this directive is it does not single out any type of lifestyle, but everyone can imagine who it might in fact apply to. If you prefer to be shirtless in the summer heat of the midwest, that is a lifestyle choice. But the business has every right to refuse you service based on their belief that you should be fully clothed in order to do business in their establishment.

Wow really great and true scenario you have crafted there, fatfaggotfuck69, I'm going to be sure and throw up a sign on my restaurant saying I don't serve blacks or Jews because God hates them.

No, it's not a matter of identity, a matter of ideology. It's being forced to agree, or at least to say you agree.
