[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cool, then you are also fine with businesses refusing to serve people of different races[/quote]
And that envolves which religious beliefs exactly? Apples and oranges, stop being an ass.[/quote]

Oh, please. The "religious liberty" argument - the exact one used here - was used to justify slavery, segregation, and anti-miscegenation laws. http://wakeforestlawreview.com/2012/04/a-unique-religious-exemption-from-antidiscrimination-laws-in-the-case-of-gays-putting-the-call-for-exemptions-for-those-who-discriminate-against-married-or-marrying-gays-in-context/[/quote]
Change the channel. Private business should be free to do as they please. It is reasonable to expect gov't institutions to be controlled, not the private enterprise. [/quote]

So, you're saying that yes, private businesses should be allowed to exclude people based on race?[/quote]
So what do we do with a hair-dresser who doesn't know what to do with black hair? :roll: Just curious what your suggestions will be.[/quote]

Well, if she wants to be able to cut black hair well, she should study and learn.  If her clients like the way she cuts their hair, more power to them.  Maybe women who don't like how she cuts hair still come in for a blow-out.  But that's not the same as refusing to serve black people.  She's offering the same services to everyone.  [/quote]
Dude, which ivory tower are you from? Besides cutting, girls have their hair styled. Do you have a clue about how much effort and skill goes into styling natural black hair? Doesn't sound like you do. A person without specific skills is not going to attempt something like this. And I'd like to see you make someone acquire a skill they may not be interested in. [/quote]

Did you actually read my post, "dude?"  Where did I say anyone should be required to learn a skill?  And yes, I am aware that girls like to have their hair styled, thanks.  I'm saying that the hair stylist in your example is not required to learn how to cut any particular type of hair, but cannot refuse to cut a black person's hair if they want to have their hair cut.

Just out of curiosity, are you claiming that gay people eat a different kind of wedding cake?  That there is some skill that florists would have to acquire to provide flowers for a gay wedding?[/quote]
