US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

[Truth7t7]

But states would have to recognize them....and all related privileges and rights that go along with that.

False, many states will completely invalidate "all aspects" of same sex marriage in a reversal, no related privileges as you suggest, spousal medical insurance, taxes, etc

Example: The very conservative Oklahoma isn't going to recognize or pay for same sex partners in benefits etc

Businesses in Oklahoma aren't going to recognize same sex marriage or pay for partner benefits as in a normal marriage

 

[Truth7t7]

Nope. Same sex marriages are not, and have never been, pushed on anyone.

Tell that to the cake baker (Jack Phillips) in Colorado that was dragged into court over "same sex marriage issues" several times

Tell that to the business owner that opposes same sex marriage and putting a partner on business sponsored medical insurance as a spouse

 

[Truth7t7]

Nah, I'm one of those people who likes freedom and liberty for everyone, not just a chosen few.

The freedom and liberty to recognize marriage is between a man/woman

The freedom and liberty to recognize homosexuality is a choice in abnormal deviant sexual sin, and has no protected status in society as many governments claim

Except for the federal law and the Constitution which will require them to.

Just as this ruling in the OP that is comparative to same sex marriage, Justice Gorsuch gives a clear statement

A business owner can speak freely and openly against same sex marriage, and he can't be forced into actions (Providing Medical Insurance) for same sex spouses against his speech and belief, his denial of the insurance is an extension of his speech and belief in action

Just as the web designer denied to participate in same sex marriage service, same would apply for a business owner and same sex spousal insurance in denial

This "Broad" ruling clearly gives a position on the court, the liberal agenda is dead on all fronts, the treatment of the Colorado Cake Baker being taken to court like 3-4 times on the same subject by progressive homosexual liberals was the last straw for the Supreme Court IMHO, and this ruling put the icing on the cake bakers future

Quote Justice Gorsuch:

"the constitution protected an individual’s right to free speech “regardless of whether the government considers his speech sensible and well intentioned or deeply misguided”."

Yep, it'll be instructive how popular conservative culture war issues actually are among the general US population.

Popularity isn't the issue.

 

[Hammster]

Can I refuse to serve Christians who are against gay people existing?

Sure.

T: Is that guy gay?
B: You mean my son?
T: Yeah. Is he abnormal?
B: I'm sorry?
T: You know. A deviant. Is he a deviant?

Ah, the sweet aroma of liberty...

 

[Bradskii]

I'm a Christian and my holy Bible teaches homosexuality is sin...

It teaches you that many things are sinful. But you do seem to fix on the ones concerning sex.

But certain sexual acts between heterosexual couples are sinful. Why aren't you concerned about those. Why don't you want to check what sort of sex they have?* And if it's just about 'the act' then what if the gay couple are two elderly and celibate ladies?

* Spoiler alert: Because it's none of your business is why. Yet you want to make it your business if it's a gay couple.

PS: Don't waste your time pasting bible passages if they're for my benefit. I don't read them, so it doesn't waste mine.

Some are Hoping for a new Dred Scott ruling it seems.

I do not think you want the government to be Christian and as not everyone is Christian you cannot expect them to feel the same way. Plus, not everyone sees BEING HOMOSEXUAL a choice, so not everyone would even agree with you on that point.

 

[dogs4thewin]

When the Supreme Court rules it (same sex marriage) unconstitutional its (Gone) states and employers etc can remove it from their books

The only way it can be guaranteed is by a 2/3 vote in a constitutional amendment, it's that simple

but I cannot see the court doing that if anything they would turn it back to the states.

There you go, a prime example of freedom of speech, I disagree with your claims, and we have the right in America to express our opinions in disagreement

My Bible teaches homosexuality is sin and against nature, and you have the right to express you opinion in disagreement

Jesus Is The Lord

 

[Truth7t7]

I agree it will be returned to the states, and it will pretty much follow the same road map as the recent reversal of Roe V. Wade

The majority of the States will or have added to their constitutions that marriage is between a male/female

This will allow the State and it's commerce to stop mandated privilege to partners in homosexual marriages (Medical Insurance) etc
