How do you feel about polygamy laws? Is ok for the government to restrict the first amendment rights of LDS members or any other religion that has practiced polygamy?
"You know the way the law was originally written, the nuns or anyother non profit could apply for exemption?"

Then why did they sue all the way to the Supreme Court? Filing for an exemption would be a whole lot easier and cheaper.

No I'm not. Now that you're back, instead of saying there are "dozens" of "nuanced" cases that support your claim that the baker doesn't have this right...can you post, or cite, just one?

As for polygamy, that's a very interesting question. I don't have an easy answer. We can all agree that religious freedom doesn't extend to human sacrifice...where do we draw the line? I don't know. But asking a gay couple to go to another bakery certainly isn't a huge burden.
