You keep using the word proud when that's not what I understand he feels about his cakes. And it's unimportant anyway.  He asserts that it would be against his religious beliefs to make a cake for a gay wedding because he does not support the gay lifestyle.  No one said he is asking people their sexuality.  And an artist is not compelled to make art for just anyone.  I am not saying that he is an artist (you really like to say things that I haven't said), I am saying that he has a decent case and it's not a slam dunk, as so many asset, that he loses.  And you seem to be confusing selling art with creating commissioned art. As I said earlier, if they came in to buy say a piece of cake, he would have to sell it to them.  However they commissioned a cake to be made and he refused.  Why would black people be discriminated on religious basis?   Black people tend to be very religious.  You are asserting something that is ridiculous.  He and God can take up his hypocrisy.  That's not for me.
