So, if you believe that, why are you choosing to be an oppressor? There is only one way to truly conquer oppression, and it isn't with trying to win via punishing or oppressing those who disagree with you. Look at the life of Jesus.
It is not oppression to stop people discriminating against those who don't deserve it.

So when we see children being killed in the streets we should do nothing?

I see you are coming across to my pacifist side. :pound:
1Tim1:15-17
Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.Amen.

We're talking about cakes here. Now you're moving the goal posts. In cases of violence, you might recall what I wrote a few posts back. This isn't a debating game to me.

I often design websites for people. If a person came to me, wanting me to provide them with a website that is an activist gay website, and I refused, what should my punishment be Dan?

I think a fair punishment for that, would be for you to be sent to a penal island country, to spend the rest of your days surrounded by clueless liberals.

How'd I do?

It was a joke K....

Under the anti discrimination laws you could be charged and rightfully so.

But you could just give no reason for turning it down and that would be acceptable.

After this entire thread, you STILL don't understand the issue.

Seriously Dan?

THERES NO DISCRIMINATION BECAUSE OF SEXUAL ORIENTATION!!!

The sexual orientation of the person is irrelevant. It's the message. A heterosexual person could come to Kurieuo, trying to get the same request for a gay activist website.

ITS THE MESSAGE. NOT THE SEXUAL PREFERENCE OF THE PERSON!!!

I DO UNDERSTAND RICK!!!! SHOUTING AT ME WILL NOT CHANGE MY MIND. CAPPPPPPPSLOCK!!!

Now, discriminating against the message is the same as discriminating against the person, there is no difference at all.

If the person is straight you are still discriminating against gay people, it makes no difference.

Notwithstanding I don't see any discrimination against a person, you'd consider my non-compliance to create an activist gay website as discrimination, would have me charged, "and rightfully so".

Only, you say, unless I remain silent about my reasons.
This speaks volumes to me.

Please, anyone reading, pause... and let what Dan has just said sink in.

Thanks Dan, for showing where you stand. But, I must say I'm quite repulsed and offended that you'd have me (and other Christians and people) punished for holding to their beliefs.

How ironic that you claim to be Christian, and yet would join the world in oppressing of Christians.
If you can't see how extreme your views are, then here I rest.

You have the right to refuse any service you provide, provided you are not discriminating. If you don't disclose the reason, you cannot be charged with discrimination!! It's just logical.

But if you act like a turd and tell them why, then yes you can be charged, because you have been caught discriminating.

If you can't see how you views are extreme in oppressing minorities and how this leads to a society that murders millions, I cannot help you.


You think my views are extreme because I support Christian persecution (which I don't), I think your views are extreme for allowing and supporting Christians to persecute others, which in my opinion is worse!!

Just so there is no confusion for you Rick, I will put it into a scenario.

There are two couples one heterosexual (Sam and Samantha) and one homosexual (Sam and Sam), both go to buy a wedding cake with the exact same message on it "Sam & Sam". The cake maker makes the cake with the message for the heterosexual couple but does not for the homosexual couple. Obviously the message is the same in both instances, it is not offensive in anyway shape or form, so we must conclude that the message is not the reason for the discrimination, but instead that couples sexual orientation that is being discriminated against.

Recommended for some perspective, to those who are blinded in our current schismatic-loving secular society against Christians, who just don't get that "Christian disagreement" does not equal "hate or persecution".

It is clear you're clouded by emotion and irrationality common to secular humanistic thinking that seeks to destroy Christianity if you think refusing to participate in gay activism based upon belief is persecuting others. It is absurd, and I can't believe Christians believe such hogwash. I have nothing more to say to you.

Well, at least one Christian lives and sees this hogwash, and faces it and sees why it makes sense.
