Refusing to make a gay wedding cake is based off of an objection to the wedding, not the person.
Now if a gay person went to a baker and asked them to make a birthday cake and were refused, you'd have a point.
Person walks into a bakery and asks for a wedding cake. They go through the entire process of the details until at the very end he asks "do you have any toppers with two grooms?" At this point the transaction ends because the baker refuses service.
If a baker will bake wedding cakes for other couples, but won't for a same sex couple, then it is because they are gay. That is the difference there. Masking it behind the defense of not agreeing with SSM is a farce. The reason, the root of the denial of service, is because they are gay. It's nothing more than attempting to use religion to discriminate.
