No. People do not have to support same sex marriage. They have the right to oppose it, but they have no right to force that belief on other people. Freedom of belief is not the right to force that belief on other people. If you don't like same sex marriage, don't marry the same sex. It is really stupid the way conservative fanatics equate equalit with religious persecution. Gays wanting equal rights does NOT equal religious persecution! The antigay position is a religious idea that should not dictate the law. Furthermore, many Christians like myself support gay and bisexual rights. Side: No

If such an act would contravene the teachings of the baker's religion, then they most definitely should not be required by law to do so. The basic human right to be able to freely, and without fear of institutionalised persecution, to exercise one's religion is as equally important as the rights of those with deviant sexual orientations. In a number of instances, such as the ''Asher's Bakery'' case in Belfast, a gay couple willfully targeted a Christian owned establishment in the full knowledge that either their whole order, or part thereof would be refused, thus providing them with the grounds to commence litigation under the 'equality laws''. The mischievous gay trouble makers could have had their cake baked by the Christian bakery, (which the bakery did), and then had their gay message carried out by another party. Or, as normal and sensible people would have done, have someone else bake and decorate the cake. Side: No
