I don't think there are very many Muslim printers over here tbqh, I work in a business that deal with alot of printers around the country for the last 15 years and so far I haven't come across one :shrug:

But let's say hypothetically that there was. And there will be at some point.... would it be wrong for him to refuse to print wedding invitations for a gay couple based on his strong religious beliefs, even though he'd served them with other things previously?

Of course it would. Why would I make an exception for Muslims?

Because there'd be a outcry! Lots of middle-class white people would be incensed you'd expected a Muslin to go against his beliefs!

Morning Niamh, by the way...

Morning :love:

I know you're right of course, there would probably alot of people defending Muslims that condemn Christians for the same thing, of course you'd also have the other extreme of people taking a harder pop because they're Muslims as well. For me personally, I would feel the same no matter what religion it was, discrimination is discrimination :shrug:

I've played Devil's Advocate for much of this thread... of course if you're offering a service you have to be willing to offer a full service to everyone. When I lived in London I had a corner shop run by a Muslim who sold alcohol and ham...

Kizzy 06-03-2015 09:30 AM

It would still be against the law then I presume?

Well there you go lol, it just seems that it's always the gay agenda that some religions seem to take the most strong "stand" against

I suppose gays are the new kids on the block when it comes to rights. In the future it'll be unthinkable that anyone could be discriminated against for falling in love and wanting to marry.

"If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them."


Paul the Apostle wrote in the First Epistle to the Corinthians,


“ Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God."


So the printers are correct as Bible believing Christians to abhor homosexuality as it says so it their instruction manual

no they are not correct, the quotes you gave said that men shall not lie with a man as he does with a woman. gay men don't lie with women at all, so they don't lie with men as they do with women.

The bible is only against bisexuality, not homosexuality. and it says nothing about lesbianism.

it depends on what translation you use

God is not keen on cross dressers also

The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. Deuteronomy 22:5

Aren't the gays discriminating against the publishers right to practice his religion fully, and where does freedom of expression fit into all this or are some groups more worthy than others :laugh: we could go round in circles for ever with this one, key point is they will probably get it done for free elsewhere, and I doubt I will be invited to what is turning out to be the event of the year
