Should churches be allowed to refuse to perform gay marriage?

should they be allowed? yes. should they be forced? no.

How is that different than a religious store owner?

I don't understand your question... at all.

In all seriousness... Mormonism (& Joseph Smith) is.... interesting (to put it positively). My guess is the things you find "interesting" about Mormonism are in the same vein that some find "interesting" about Christianity. Wouldn't you think? Yes but I don't deliberately compare their religion wit...

I will be losing my 10 Fidy virginity tonight.

One of my favorites. Enjoy.

I was just thinking a 6 (or 7 if you don't want to keep what you brought) person beer exchange would be perfect. Everyone bring a 12 pack of beers, then everyone gets 2 of each one. Might be something I'll start up.

When you call a business multiple times during their open hours and go to the answering machine each time... We had planned to drop my dog off at my parent's house for the weekend, but my family isn't going to be there. They're all going to be doing other stuff, so we're trying to get in contact wit...

lol, the second one actually was the gay cake.

I had to rub my eyes as I thought I saw Corey Conacher...

Where is team cake when you need him?

First beer exchange at work today. The Founder and CEO of the company were so for this idea that they rewrote a section of our employee handbook to bring it into compliance with the exchange. This month is Stouts and Porters. Since I organized it I picked my favorite style even though they are now ...

Well, if he had asked for a boob cake, then she would have made it.

There's a local wing shop that sells 15 wings (they sell them in other quantities too, but stay with me here), and you can have up to 3 different sauces. I once asked if I could have my wings packaged into separate containers so the sauces don't mix. They said they don't do that. That is not discrim...

Shad is going to love this vid:

Nsfw word at the very end.

Since when are bible verses hate speech? In March of 2014, Marjorie Silva, owner of Azucar, refused to make cakes that included two Bible verses: “God hates sin. Psalm 45:7″ and “Homosexuality is a detestable sin. Leviticus 18:2[2].” The cake design was also to include a portrayal of two grooms hol...

saweeeeeeet... One of my biggest pet peeves is when some know-it-all chimes in with "you know brontosaurus isn't actually a dinosaur..." It's happened only a couple times in my life, but now my pain is over.

Hmmm... the cake thing is interesting. She offered to make the cakes, just not write hate speech on it. I'm reading in articles that William Jack asked for Bible verses to "Kill all [homophobic slur]" and everything in between, so I'm not sure what he really asked her to put on the cake. Now trying...

Happy Birthday... here's a picture of food:

Probably best sums up the bulk of the thread so far.

just so we're clear... you don't like HiCU?

It helps to answer the constant questions of "did anyone invite [username]" "Is [username] here yet?" If someone doesn't want people to know what their old username is then they don't need to tell people or they shouldn't post in the exact manner they posted over there. As of yet, I don't think ther...

believe me... the way you post, everyone knew.

yoi... tough way to start the season.

I don't believe in a first human pair... I think just like with most things in evolution and common ancestry, it's very difficult to pin point a "start" of a species. It's much like picking below, where does red end and where does blue start? http://th08.deviantart.net/fs70/200H/f/2013/202/1/6/red_a...
