BAKER WHO REFED TO MAKE KE FOR GAY WEDDG: 'I DON'T DISCRIMATE'

Like most gay and equaly mpaigners, I ially nmned the Christian-n Ashers Bakery Belfast over s refal to produce a ke wh a pro-gay marriage slogan for a gay ctomer, Gareth Lee.

Much as I wish to fend the gay muny, I also want to fend eedom of nscience, exprsn and saga began 2014 when the bakery said was not willg to ice a ke wh the words “support gay marriage” and the logo of the equaly group Queer Space, claimg the msage was ntrary to s Christian beliefs. This stck many of as anti-gay discrimatn based on relig-spired homophobic prejudice. Ashers believ that the relatnships of lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr (LGBT) people are wrong and should not be eligible for the stat of marriage.

I’VE CHANGED MY MD ON THE GAY KE ROW. HERE’S WHY

Surely this was an example of clear-cut anti-gay discrimatn? They claim to be Christians, yet J never once nmned homosexualy, and discrimatn is not a Christian value.

It sought to challenge homophobia.

THE ‘GAY KE’ FIGHT: WHY THE BAKERS HAD A RIGHT TO REFE THIS ORR

It pas me to say this, as a long-time supporter of the stggle for LGBT equaly Northern Ireland, where same-sex marriage and gay blood donors rema banned.

Photograph: Charl McQuillan/Getty ImagHad Ashers refed to serve Lee bee he was gay, or bee of his support for same-sex marriage, then I n see why would be guilty of discrimatn. Other Christians prosecuted for preachg hatred clu Michael Overd, nvicted at Bristol crown urt of quotg homophobic passag om the Bible, and Shawn Hol, fed for preachg on the streets of Glasgow that gays served the “wrath of God” that Christians themselv are slow to censor. Siarly, Christian B&B owners should not be able to turn away gays, even if they believe that homosexualy is a treatment, however, is not the same as forcg someone to exprs particular views.
