“The Facebook post is the equivalent of putting a “No Gays Allowed” sign in front of his shop, and while the owner sees himself being a good Christian, I disagree. I challenge the notion that Jesus discriminates, when we all know he is about love and acceptance.”
If you haven't heard about the recent controversy in Michigan with a small business owner who refuses to repair cars for openly gay people, but will give discounts to gun owners, check it out.
It's made national headlines and Guns.com quoted me for the pro-LGBT side of things and how I believe it's wrong to discriminate, regardless of your rationale. This is America, where we can agree to disagree and not push people away through discrimination. We learn through interaction and engagement, and as the owner is a proud Christian, I would encourage him to embrace the idea that Jesus loved everyone and was accepting of man and all his flaws.
It's quite an interesting controversy where the 1st, 2nd, and 14th Amendments are all involved.
