Why should they deny homesexuals? where in their religion does it say to do such a thing? If they are taking a part that is mostly abandoned that mentions homosexuality to be a sin, yet not denying buisness to other sinners how is that being religeous? and actually no, they don't have equal rights, religion is protected under the constitution and in the state of Indiana, beign gay not so much. The law allows people of a religion to desciminate. It doesn't sunnedly make it legal to descriminate against them actually.

I'm not a subscriber of any religion, let alone their particular religion so I can't say exactly, but I think the argument the bakeries had (which this law is a reaction to) was that they don't want to take part in the ceremony which they considered it sinful to do so by producing the wedding cake. It isn't like they wouldn't sell a cupcake to a gay person, they just don't want to be involved in a gay wedding (making a wedding cake is more than selling the cake, you have to prepare it for the wedding specifically, have multiple corespondences with the couple, ask questions regarding their wedding, etc, etc.) As a 5 on the kinsey scale, I think it is more wrong to sue these people or shut down their business for standing by their beliefs, even if their beliefs are hurtful, in my eyes wrong, and illogical, which I say as an athiest.
