[quote=Anonymous]Have we gone too far requiring people that provide a service such as photographer from exercising a no shirt no shoes no service kind of thing based on their beliefs. Bakeries...while they don't participate in the event as a photog does...I still consider it a service but not as much. I mean, what is it hurting to turn away business when it isn't a restaurant or cleaners or work place or housing or any myriad of other things. I mean, if one feels Scientology is a borderline cult and it goes against your beliefs should a person be forced to photo/video some event of theirs? What's the difference?

See, while I have agreed with other posters here who point out the various things one could consider yet seemingly be able to get past...remarriage for instance...I can't see where this materially harms a person. What I can see though is that if you don't agree...doesn't matter how or why...we are going to force your ass to either agree or run you out of business. And as to a boycott or what have you that's their right and the risk a person takes for adhering to their beliefs. Again...not talking about material needs but rather a personal service.

If Donald Trump offered me a million dollars to work for him I would refuse based on my principles and values. Should he able to sue me? If HRC offered...I would refuse her too. I don't want to provide them with a service, it would violate my beliefs and would be tantamount to an endorsement of them and the money is inconsequential.[/quote]
