Hurrah for Sir Patrick Steward, apparently, his moral compass does not always pint S-o-o-o-o-o-o-u-t-h.
Patrick Stewart has weighed into the ‘gay cake’ debate, saying that he supports the right of the Christian bakers to refuse to ice messages they find offensive.
He’s probably going to catch hell for this; let’s see if he backs down.
I hope he doesn’t. You know, if the cake is delicious and then people inquire about where they got it, it would be like the bakery was taking money via false advertising for something they do not support.
Who knew we would be having shotgun gay weddings, and that the shotguns would be pointed at the cake bakers?
Patrick Stewart is not on your side
Stewart believes and has fought for marriage equality and believes it to be a right. He believes that opposition of gay rights and marriage equality are prejudice. Hence he believes that those who oppose gay rights are prejudice in other words a bigot. He believes rights including marriage should be universally embraced and treasured.
Conservatives, yourself included V. Do not believe marriage is a right. Do not believe gay people have been discriminated against and do not believe that those who oppose gay rights are prejudice. Moreover Stewart, unlike conservatives including yourself, NDT, and Livewire, does not believe that gay people are child molesters.
Stewart is no friend or ally of yours
The point, James Edward, was not that Sir Patrick was pro or anti gay marriage, but that he expressed the opinion that people like the bakers have rights to their opinions, too. And not only that, but those rights need consideration and protection as well.
James Edward @#3:
Poor James Edward. Is marriage a right between siblings? Is marriage a right between a man and his goat? Is marriage a right between a man and his 8 year old boy toy? Is marriage a right between a man and a mentally incompetent? Is marriage a right between a man and a woman and the same man and a different woman and the same man and a third woman all at the same time? Is marriage a right between 12 year olds?
Answers these several questions first. Because you seem to have the belief that the “right” of marriage is unrestricted.
Now, James Edward, are you restricted from marriage because you are gay or are you restricted in the partners you may friggin’ CHOOSE to marry? Does gay James Edward have the right to marry a competent, of age, unrelated woman? That is the core question.
What, James Edward can you and your same sex spouse do after being “married” that you can not do now? What are you being denied?
What are you being denied that a civil union would not fix?
Can you handle being “married” and still be seen as a sinner by people you hate no matter what? Or do you have plans to make them eat crow?
Spill your gut out James Edward. It would be amusing if not downright hilarious to see how worm of your logic turns.
James- Stewart does not think gays have the right to point shotguns at cake bakers and force them to do things against their beliefs especially when there are gay yellow pages with tons of bakers in them
Ah, our self admitted paedophile is back. As NDT points out, he’s arguing for child marriage now. Harry Hay would be proud.
I having nothing to add to the discussion, except I would’ve used this brilliant ST:TNG/Jeffrey mashup instead of the American Dad:
You Tube: “THAT Jean-Luc Picard”
P.S. And if you haven’t seen it, don’t miss “PicArt,” a similar mashup by the same creator (a drawing of a horse playing a saxophone causes Data’s positronic brain to malfunction).
