Starbucks is now begging conservatives to come back after the CEO told people that believed in "traditional marriage" to buy their coffee elsewhere. Target's stocks have fallen since they fell for the gender fluidity nonsense. But neither of these companies have been sued or ordered to go against their beliefs in order to serve the public. However, a few years ago, two christian businesses were forced to go against their faith values to serve same sex couples.
A Christian florist and grandmother was fined $1,001 by a Washington court and held responsible to pay the legal fees incurred by the gay couple. This judgment devastated her financially and cost her everything she had worked for.
Barronelle Stutzman was found guilty of violating the state's non-discrimination law, after referring Rob Ingersoll and Cirt Feed to another florist when they asked her to provide floral arrangements for the "wedding". It was not like Stutzman did not know the parties. She had sold flowers to Ingersoll for nearly a decade before this and had a positive relationship with him. She did not, however, feel comfortable providing her services for a practice she did not agree with. She had the option to get out of her legal crisis if she had agreed to pay a fine of $2,001 and agree to provide her services to the couple. She did not feel comfortable in compromising her faith to save her business.
Or perhaps you remember the Christian baker who refused to make a wedding cake for same sex marriage ceremonies. The owner of the bakery, Jack Phillips, refused because of his religious beliefs. The couple teamed up with the American Civil Liberties Union and the Colorado Civil Rights Commission ruled against Phillips. He was also ordered to take reeducation classes on discrimination He has now given up making cakes altogether because of his stance on being forced to go against his religious beliefs.
This is happening all over the country today and yet, in the video below you can see what happens when a gay man orders a Christian group out of his coffee shop. Christians are being forced to go against their beliefs or lose everything they have worked for while the Liberal Left can say and do anything they want to. What happened to tolerance of others who do not believe they way you do?
Tolerance should be a two way street but in today's society, it is a one way street with the left in charge.
What do you think would have happened if the Christian florist or the Christian baker mocked and berated the same sex couples? The media would have been had their heads on a platter. We have got to start standing for our faith and values or the left will win and Christians will be totally destroyed.
As always, you have the right to disagree with me but I have the right to my opinion. May God bless you all. Just saying.
