UK same-sex marriage cake

samedi 13 octobre 2018 à 02:00

The UK Supreme Court ruled, much like the US Supreme Court, that bakers have a right to refuse to make a cake which stated support for same-sex marriage.

I agree with this decision, when it concerns individual bakers or a privately held corporation whose individual owners can validly think of it as theirs. I disagree with their views but I support their right to express those views.

I see no reason to extend a similar right to publicly traded corporations, however. They are not people and not entitled to human rights.

Isn't it easy to write any message you like on a cake, with frosting, after you buy it?
