(Personally, I wish they call themselves that as their message is about as far from Godly as one can get, but they're still a church.) And they say there hateful things becaus eof their religion. Ergo, refusing service to the church would be refusing service based on religion. And if the Christian baker must serve gays, then the gay baker must serve the Westboro Baptist fools.
(For the record, I don't think the Christian should be FORCED to serve gays, but, as a Christian, I think he should).
My biggest problem with the baker, notwithstanding legality, is his view on God. And second his logic. If God has declared that marriage is between a man and a woman, then whatever the gay people are doing, it's not a marriage therefore he is not participating in one.
