bah humbug...

This is a new one on me.

I didn't know you could be prosecuted in a Western country for simply refusing to produce a cake for a gay couple. That seems a little excessive to me. I would say the same about a gay bakery that refused to do a hetero cake.

The solution is to shop around.

People's business should be their business without interference from the PC mob.

Typical Pecca answer. If it was Muslims knocking back Christians he'd be backing the Muslims.

They breached equality legislation.

Christians don't like to obey the law, so it seems.

I don't back anyone who breaches legislation.

Why do these white Christians think they're above the law?

Do you think a conservative Muslim would be ok with making a cake with an icing portrait of Mo?

I doubt it.

Do you have a point, or are you just trying to change the subject to Muslims, like you always do?

Your trolling is becoming worse than that of Herr-bert's, you know.

You do when it's a minority.
