There is no evidence to support the assertion that sexual orientation is an "adopted" behavior, and more evidence to the contrary. While the subset of Christians who are so against having to interact with LGBTs have chosen to adhere to certain dogma/beliefs, that being an actual choice on their part, it cannot be said that LGBTs claim any set of dogma/beliefs, they are just being who they are. The two cannot be compared.
Well it wasn't laughed out of the courts when they decided it. You've heard of legal precedent I presume? Yes, of course you have.."sexual fluidity" and "behavioral editcs" are for the courts. The Hobby Lobby argument will be laughed out of court.
And as to sexual fluidity, have you read the over 300 peer-reviewed corroborated citations from the "Conditioning and Sexual Behavior" link in the OP? Scroll the PDF to its end and read the citation list. Pretty damned impressive to be "laughed out of court".. You know the question of behavior is coming up. Best be prepared when it does.
What a terribly weak position, and huge deflection. So if the law is the sole determinant of morality, then in your own words, we should be deporting any and all illegal Aliens as quickly as possible, because we should just defer to the law. That’s the law. It was at one point right to have slavery, as well as Jim Crow, and DOMA, just because the law says soOf course it is fail. The law controls the answer to those questions, sak, no your feewings.False a priori premise, so OP fails.
Based on what? And no the question doesn’t fail, if a gay Baker was asked to make a cake for defense of marriage activist group, should they be forced to make that cake? Should a pro-choice baker be forced to make a cake depicting abortion is murder?
Well put sirWhat a terribly weak position, and huge deflection.

And , no law may promote one set of behavioral edicts over another because that would be a State formally recognizing one religion over another. Yes, you noticed Jake's glaringly weak legal position and penchant for deflection when he knows he's losing an argument. In fact, I often use it as a litmus test to determine how well I'm doing landing my points. Directly proportional is the abuse and deflection to how threatened he feels.
Can Palestinians deny customized service/products customized specifically for a Zionist function?Of course it is fail. The law controls the answer to those questions, sak, no your feewings.False a priori premise, so OP fails.

Should a male victim of child molestation be forced "legally" to bake a cake for a NAMBLA event that says "Man/boy love" on the icing? Yes or no?

Answer the question and reference the law. Stop dodging. You are here defending the AZ law so reference it and answer the questions about it or admit defeat in this debate.Consult the law, Sil, not your feelings.
I’m not talking about what the current law is, I can name you probably 50 laws off the top of my head, I’m arguing about what the laws should be. Slavery was never right just because it was legal. That’s a stupid stance to take. What’s the point of electing people if laws are the be all end all? What’s the point of this discussion?If a gay baker who makes cakes for a living is asked by a religious group to make a cake.....yes. Because religion is listed in PA laws. Is that "Defense of Marriage" activist group a political group? Then they don't have to because political leaning isn't protected under PA laws anywhere. Get to know your PA laws in your state if you want to start a business and get a business license.False a priori premise, so OP fails.

No that’s what you wish, and need to tell yourself, because you don’t have a consistent point. I don’t want anybody’s feelings to determine law, Which they clearly have and do it now. It wasn’t a constitutionally legal decision to install Doma, And either it was wrong to repeal Delmar on the fact that it should be states rights, or it was wrong to say that states have no say in the matter two years later. Clearly there’s definite feelings coming into play there if the Supreme Court is going against its own decision two years after the fact.Not in the slightest.

I don't have to. You asked a question, and I told you to consult the law. That you may not like the law means nothing.Not in the slightest. You want your feelings to dominate the law, which won't happen.

You are not a Judge, sak, not in the least.

Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.
(Sec. 7.5 added Nov. 4, 2008, by Prop. 8. Initiative measure. Note: Ruled unconstitutional per Perry v. Schwarzenegger (N.D.Cal. 2010) 704 F.Supp.2d 921.)
And they did, in Windsor. Read this OP for direct quotes about who defines state marriage laws: Lifestyle-Marriage Equality Slugout: State Authority vs Federal?1. No, the court did not repeat Winsdor on that basis. That's a lie.
2. Obergefell two years later cleared up the misconceptions of the Sils and Saks of the world.
SCOTUS has every right to tell their states to comport with constitutional law.
