Judge Forces Baker To Make Cake For Gay Wedding, Youll Love What Happens Next Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop has been standing by his decision to deny making a wedding cake for a gay couple, even though the Colorado Civil Rights Commission upheld a judgment against him. According to a recent report by TheBlaze, Phillips told reporters that he has no intention of providing cakes for gay and lesbian weddings. His position has not wavered since the lawsuit was brough against him by Dave Mullins and Charlie Craig. Im not going to make cakes for same-sex weddings, Phillips told reporters, That violates my First Amendment speechand my duty as a Christian abiding by my savior. Phillips claims that he stopped taking wedding cake orders in March, just shortly after the ruling was released against him. He doesnt want to work if he is required to serve gay couples. The order stated that Phillips is required to cease and desist from discriminating again same-sex couples. Despite Phillips strong stance on the issue, there has been little backlash on the business. Contrastingly, Phillips claims that the press has actually increased business. Phillips told reporters that the judge understood his constitutional rights, but made the claim that refusing to provide a cake didnt count as speech and that discrimination charges overrule it. The Bible to me overrules all that, Phillips told reporters, The Bible asks me to be obedient to Christand the Bible condemns certain things. Phillips attorney, Nicolle Martin, told reporters that she and her client are considering next steps, which may include an appeal.
