Oh really? Can you cite one case where a gay person was refused service


for something other than a religious wedding ceremony, solely for being gay? For that matter, could you point to me the religion that says it's ok to refuse service to blacks? (other than the obscure a-hole that manipulates interpretation to mean something totally out of the Mainstream a la the Westboro Bakery and Creampuffery)

If someone actually was discriminating and refusing to serve gays for any reason (although I have to point out that unlike blacks, sexual preference is not a protected class, other than limited and local applications, but it should be IMO. Absurd someone can be fired for that.), then I could make the leap with you to equate this to racial discrimination. But it's not. Other than by those that want to pretend it is to force others to adopt their beliefs. Are you going to force the Muslim store owner to sell alcohol next? To print anti-Islamic tee shirts? Surely you don't want them to be allowed to discriminate against non-Muslims do you?
