So this prime pair:
…needed some painting done in their little love nest, but when they asked one house painter to do the job, they got this reply:
Needless to say, the fegelehs are “outraged”. And so am I.
While it is absolutely within anyone’s right to turn down work — for any reason — this little painter needs to get a good swift smack: not for refusing to work for homosexuals, but for using her religion publicly as an excuse not to do so. Sheesh, could she not just have said, “Sorry, but my work schedule is really full right now, so I can’t do the job”? Of course not: she had to use this situation to loudly proclaim her faith — the kind of thing that gives all religious adherents a bad name. And I know that lying is typically taboo, but FFS there’s a reason they’re called “white lies”: a falsehood that is used out of politeness or manners to avoid causing offense.
(I typically refer to people like this as “asshole Christians”, although I should also point out that when I once read about a Muslim chick refusing to work in a supermarket’s meat department because it would mean touching pork products, I referred to her in similar terms.)
Now, of course, some other asshole in government (is there another kind?) is going to get all puffed up and outraged too, and as day follows night, regulation and/or law is going to follow — which outrages me — and laws like this will be used to bludgeon people like bakers who refuse, for the same reasons as Painter Polly, to make cakes for soon-to-be-married lesbos.
And all civility is lost, and the lawyers get rich.
As for our two nesting gayboys: it’s not like the world of interior decorating is devoid of people of similar inclination to yours. Just find one — it will not be difficult — and stop making a production about it.
Everyone involved in this sad little tale needs to be smacked about the head with a Cluebat®.
