Hate Easy As Cake


cjones12072017

What is wrong with Republicans when a cake made for a gay wedding is more disturbing than sending a pedophile to the United States Senate? If you believe creating a cake for a gay wedding is endorsing gay marriage, then what are you endorsing by electing a pedophile? What sort of values do you actually have?

The Supreme Court will decide if a Colorado baker has the right to discriminate against gay couples by refusing to make cakes for their weddings. Here’s a question I have for bakers who don’t want to create cakes for gay weddings. Have you ever refused to make a cake for anyone before this?  Has a Pagan wedding ever had this problem? What if you want a Snoopy on your birthday cake but the baker’s a cat person? Don’t get me started on cupcakes.

I’m about to lay down a stereotype, but has a gay wedding planner ever refused a heterosexual marriage because he felt doing so would be endorsing their marriage?

You would think it’s not a big deal, and it doesn’t sound like it. It’s very petty for the baker to refuse service because he’s homophobic. And, you’d think the couple would find another bakery. But, if the baker can discriminate then what’s next? Can a grocery store discriminate? How about refusing a gym membership, or any other services? This is a fight worth having, even if it seems it’s only over cake.

If I was a baker, I don’t think I’d care. I might draw the line at a Swastika, but if I had paying customers then I’d put a Confederate flag on the cake if that’s what they wanted. Enjoy your hillbilly wedding.

The hate really has to be strong to let it come between you and capitalism. It would seem if you’re in the wedding business, then gay weddings would provide you more business. It’s kind of a “d’uh” thing. D’uh!!!! I don’t reject conservative newspapers when they want to buy my cartoons. Yeah. There’s a couple.

You evangelicals need to put your scripture where your mouth is. If nothing else, it’ll keep your mouths off the little girls.

I want to thank everyone who has donated in the past. Your support helps me continue creating cartoons and columns with a little less stress in my life. Between competing syndicates with much larger resources, timid editors, and Trump supporters who attempt to intimidate the editors who do publish anything that criticizes their idol, it’s a challenge to make a career out of this. So your support (if you can) is appreciated. Want to help me continue to create cartoons and keep doing what I’m doing (pissing off conservatives)? Look to the right of this page and make a donation through PayPal. Every $40 donation will receive a signed print (please specify which print you want or I won’t mail one). All donations will receive my eternal gratitude.

  1. Jesus never said a word about homosexuals. With all those Greeks and Romans, he had to know there were some around. Didn’t mention them. What he did condemn — besides being rich, repeatedly, hello “billionaire evangelical” owner of Hobby Lobby — was divorcing and getting married again. He said that was equivalent to adultery (Matthew 5:32; 19:9; Mark 10:11-12; Luke 16:17). So did this “Christian” baker ever ask heterosexual couples wanting a wedding cake if either of them was divorced with an ex living? Did his “Christian” beliefs make him deny them a cake? If not, he’s just a homophobic bigot.

    In the interests of full disclosure, I’m an atheist and I don’t believe that Jesus necessarily existed or said any of that stuff, but a Christian is supposed to believe it and be consistent about it. I know some Christians who are very fine people and quietly go about doing good. It’s the ones trumpeting their faith in the marketplace — exactly what Jesus told them NOT to do — who give their religion a bad name. If you’re pointing fingers at other people, you’re doing it wrong.
