[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe Hobby Lobby can establish a National Museum of Wedding Cake Art adjacent to the new Binle Museum.  I'd love to see the artistry of a cake depicting men riding dinosaurs through the Grand Canyon in 3000 BC.  [/quote]

Enjoy the photos - tell me this isn't an art:

Whether or not it's art is irrelevant.  You could argue that the food served at lunch counters in the South in the 60's were art too.  I once had a chef tell me that he couldn't serve my kid's Bison burger without the tomato slice because his cooking was "art" and needed to be appreciated in it's "original form".

If a gallery sold sculptures, and someone came in to buy one at the advertised price, but was turned away because of their religion, that would be discrimination and it would be illegal.

If a designer sold dresses, and someone came in to buy one at the advertised price, but was turned away because of their race, that would be discrimination and it would be illegal.

Once you offer something for sale in your business, you lose the right to discriminate against certain buyers.  In Oregon, sexual orientation is one of the classes that is protected against this discrimination.  [/quote]

And the baker sold baked goods in the shop to the same individuals.

Race and sexual orientation are different. A dress designer should be forced to design a dress for a transvestite? No.

Muslims were allowed to turn away gay individuals who wanted wedding cakes. I've brought that up numerous times and it's been ignored. Wonder why? Because y'all consider Muslims a protected class too and now are completely perplexed as to which side to take. It's laughable.

I really REALLY want y'all to win though, because you will be forced to design t-shirts for the Klan with the words of their choice. Or T-shirts for Muslims that say something nasty about Jews. [/quote]
