Maybe there wouldn't have been a problem with the Irish example of the cake had it not been for the 'Support Gay" message and same sex images.
I believe that a person has a right to be Gay and to marry same sex partners, but I also believe that in a Democracy a person of devout faith has the right to refuse such business if it genuinely compromises his beliefs.
I'm a Christian but not a Church goer and I regard Christian Extremists as OTT to be honest, but I would never advocate forcing any law on a person which makes him go against his beliefs.
There are so many alternatives now freely available to Gay people that I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about - just take your business elsewhere.

There I disagree, in my view such people should not even be allowed to be in such a business and cause offence to others who are simply legitimately seeking to do business that the rest of society can.
That is discrimination and should be wrong in any circumstances.
