I think not liking someone purely on their sexuality speaks volumes of someone's character
I think pre-judging people on one aspect of their personality is the same.

I don't think so. Their personality is, to some extent, under their control.
How did you get that from what I said?? Their personality isn't determined by their sexuality.
Isn't that intrinsic to their personality?It is their sexuality.
I said their personality...
Stop trying to twist my words when you know exactly what I'm taking about.
The baker should be able to do what they please.
This whole gay thing is getting stupid.
being denied basic human rights
some might think adding a political message to an event cake is not a basic human right, lets say all those dying in the world of starvation or oppression or those in war zones.
Grab some perspective from that ivory tower.
Yeah, being denied basic human rights/decency and not wanting to be stabbed or beat up purely because they are attracted to the same sex is totally stupid, those gays should just shut up and be grateful we allow them to exist...right?
I suppose the whole black thing was getting stupid in the 50s as well.
Mart's post referred to more than a message on a cake.
None of which is anything to do with the OP, which is a baker refusing to provide a cake containing a political message they did not agree with for a political event.
Not a wedding, not discriminating against a person, not opressing the homosexual minority, refusing to produce a cake with a political message.
If he wants to expand into black and gay oppression maybe he wishes to start a thread in speakers corner?
As quite often happens the discussion has expanded beyond what was in the OP.
