Where are you getting that? She does not appear to be selling the service of honoring freedoms. She appears to be selling the service of honoring submission to her imagined god's imagined laws.Oh, good, she'll honor the freedoms of any American living by her standards, rather than their own.Ms. Nelson isn't refusing to photograph anyone's wedding because he's a gay. She was quite clear that she'd willingly celebrate a gay's marriage to a person of the opposite sex.I should have been more clear in stating that in my example the cashier refused service based on race... Clearly that is not legal. If I refuse to bake you a cake because you're a [racial slur] it is the same thing. That was the question I addressed from Metaphor.
Yeah, that kind of goes with the whole free speech thingie -- we all get to honor whatever we choose. So if you want to honor Muslims' religious freedom and not Christians', please yourself.So, how about if we'll honor her religious freedom as long as she calls god by the name we pick? 'Allah', maybe?
(Of course, if by "honor" you mean "not violate", then you should probably not violate her religious freedom regardless of which name she calls her god. Why do you ask? Is there somebody whose freedom she violated?)
No, why do you ask? Did you imagine you saw fairness claims being made? TGGM and I are having a legal argument.That'd be fair?
