You'd be hard pressed to find a major religion that disallows someone to provide service to a gay person. It almost always involves the ceremony aspect.
See, there you go again. You refuse to look at the big picture. You think it is okay for people to suffer as long as it doesn't happen all the time. This country is full of people with extreme beliefs. And if discrimination was allowed then a lot more would come out. I know here where I live that if a business put out a sign that said "No Gays Allowed" they would start getting most of the business and pretty soon everyone would be doing it. Christians around here actually think they are "under attack" and they would flock to support a business that "stood up for traditional marriage". Places that still "supported the sinners" would go out of business.
The fact is that you don't worry how many people will suffer because you know that you are safe in the majority.
Look at the people who follow Glenn Beck and believe that every Muslim is a violent woman beater. Muslims would suffer extreme levels of discrimination at the hands of Beck followers.
