Well, its great that he provided a link.
The article still looks like a fundamentalist rant to me.
Walks like a duck ... talks like a duck ... then it probably is a duck.
Whether the situation is true or not doesn't stop it from being a fundamentalist rant.
Seems to me someone wants to turn it into a political/religious football on both sides.
I don't appreciate having dogmatic mantra rammed down my throat from any crowd.
That includes the gay community and the christian community.
Heck, it even includes the christian gay community.
Personally I think that the photographer could have refused without giving a reason, but they chose to make it a bun fight, and they chose a reason that they knew would end up in the courts.
And of course you took offence to me using "fundamentalist" because ... well ..... walks like a duck ... talks like a duck......
Fundamentalists have been ramming their agenda down everyones necks (and stringing them up) for a very long time indeed. And they still are.
Fundamentalist bigots don't really have a lot of moral ground to stand on Steve. What they have is rhetoric and picky interpretations.
Do you realise that the fundamentalists on here actually embarass and undermine the true Christians?
And in case you really want to know - I am not necessarily in favour of gay marraige and I think any photographer should be able to turn down any work they want to without providing any reason whatsoever.

Well, lighthouse, he provided the link. Apparently it's true and is not a fundamentalist rant (boy how you guys like to fling that word around without doing a fact check). What do you think now? What do I think? This country was based on freedom, and we're losing those. The LGBT community is forcing their agenda down our throat whether we like it or not as is evident in this case.
