All good points you raise for certain. I think where everything hinges, was going back to the Colorado law which prohibits "service" to anyone based on religion, sex, etc. Though not certain, I think "service" would include the creation of the design and sale, etc.

In any case, what I found out, and which I didn't know before, was that this baker had previously denied "service" to same sex couples in the past because of his religious beliefs but made a cake for the marriage of two dogs!!! I won't go there!

Marie-Antoinette, I think, said it best: "let them eat cake".
IIRC the comission in Colorado allowed businesses to deny service to some extremist groups which created a problem in addition to the comissions overall contempt of religion in general.
