text: I think having good Christian beliefs is essential to many people and probably would be good for those who don't think so. I'm sorry, but I stand with the churches and wedding cake bakers, whatever not having to be forced to provide services to people of same sex marriage.  It doesn't matter whether I'm Christian or not. Some people have said that well if the church can discriminate against the LGBT community they can start refusing to allow African Americans, Asian, Hispanic, etc. people into their church.  As I see it there is a big distinction between the two because same sex whatever is prohibited by God. Being of a different race or ethnicity is not a sin. I'm a Christian and I am conflicted about the LGBT issue as I have friends that are LGBT. I'm told I'm supposed to turn my back on them. I still think that Christians have a right to exclude marrying same sex people as well as other Christian that are asked to be a part of a same sex marriage.
