The owners of a mom and pop bakery have just learned there is a significant price to pay for following their religious beliefs.

Aaron and Melissa Klein, the owners of Sweet Cakes By Melissa, have been ordered to pay $135,000 in damages to a lesbian couple after they refused to bake them a wedding cake in 2013.

The Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industry (BOLI) awarded $60,000 to Laurel Bowman-Cryer and $75,000 in damages to Rachel Bowman-Cryer for “emotional suffering.”

“This case is not about a wedding cake or a marriage,” the final order read. “It is about a business’s refusal to serve someone because of their sexual orientation. Under Oregon law, that is illegal.”

"Emotional suffering.?"  No, this is about Christian bashing and silencing all who would oppose sodomy.  

Prayer and bible reading were taken out of schools. The murder of children, called a women's right, freedom of choice, became law, then removal of the Ten Commandments in the public square. Through it all, the church has remained silent. And now sodomy has become the law of the land.

Will Christians and Evangelical churches rise up, taking a stand for The Word of God, or once again hit the snooze button and roll over.? Time will tell.!!!
