Crystal OConnor co-owns a pizzeria in Indiana but they may close their doors permanently after being attacked for putting forth their Christian faith. When she said she would not cater a gay wedding, the shops website was hacked, their Yelp profile was plastered with insults and obscene pictures, and they even received death threats.
A supporter has begun a GoFundMe profile for the Pizzeria owners to help them weather the gay mafia storm, and they have so many people angry that theyve received over $18,000 in donations in just two hours!
Crystal talks about the onslaught in an interview with Dana Loesch:
Isnt this exactly why there needs to be a law to protect the ability of religious people to practice their faith? Not according to the scummy degenerates who are attacking her for having some standards.
No I don't... Please show me where it says "Thou shalt not serve pizza at gay weddings." I've looked for it but can't find it anywhere.
The queers have escalated this beyond serving pizza for your homo friends.
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Leviticus is OLD Covenant, dude. If you adhere to that, you will be denied Salvation, just like the ancient Hebrews were. Pay more attention to what the NEW Testament says. THAT's the one that really matters to anybody who claims to be a Christian.
No they're not. Merely catering a ceremony IS NOT the same as actually conducting or participating in the ceremony. Nobody's moral or religious principles are being compromised. The pizza shop owner is merely using religion to justify his bigotry.
"Merely catering a ceremony IS NOT the same as actually conducting or participating in the ceremony."
Weasel words. The "wedding" reception celebrates gay marriage and food is part of the reception. The caterer would prefer not to be a part of that for religious reasons.
Why is the caterer's position intolerable to gays? Because they hate religion?
Or did this gay couple go to hundreds of pizza caterers until they found one who refused them, just so they could sue him and drive him out of business? That'll show those Bible-thumping Christians, huh?
That's true, but God reaffirms His moral law in the New Covenant.
John 8:3-11
3 The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them, 4 they said to him, Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. 5 Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say? 6 They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. 7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her. 8 And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. 9 When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. 10 Jesus straightened up and said to her, Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you? 11 She said, No one, sir. And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.
The self-righteous pizza shop owners shouldn't go around proclaiming themselves to be more judgemental than Our Lord, Jesus Christ Himself.
Did not Jesus Christ and His apostles affirm God's Moral Law in the New Covenant?
No. Christ died on the cross to break the generational curse of original sin that was encompassed in the Old Covenant. It is only through the New Covenant that we can achieve redemption and salvation.
Sheesh... I always thought you "Born Again" evangelicals were supposed to understand this stuff. So why is it that you get so obsessed with the Old Covenant while forgetting the lessons that are taught to us in the New?
No. Christ died on the cross to break the generational curse of original sin that was encompassed in the Old Covenant. It is only through the New Covenant that we can achieve redemption and salvation.

So Willie, that means that murder, incest, theft, adultery, bearing false witness and many others (including sodomy) are no longer moral laws for those who follow Christ Jesus?
The New Covenant just tosses out all of that?
Can you at least tell me what the NT says about homosexuals, murderers, adultery, and fornication?
Will any who do these and are unrepentant enter into the Kingdom of God?
"For the Lord is our Judge, The Lord is our Lawgiver, The Lord is our King; He will save us" (Isaiah 33:22)
The self-righteous pizza shop owners shouldn't go around proclaiming themselves to be more judgemental than Our Lord, Jesus Christ Himself.
Did the pizza owners try to stone any homosexuals?
Taking your example, the pizza owners should have catered the event and then tell the homosexuals 'go and sin no more.'
While it's commendable that Willie is seeking scriptural precedence that supports his pro-homo advocacy in this case, apparently Red, you have found some obvious inconsistencies...
No, the Pizza owners did NOT stone or threaten to stone any homosexuals (how disappointing for the homo-advocates :-( Didn't threaten them. Disn't even demonstrate "hate" of homosexuals.
But what IF the Pizza owners (or bakers) DID indeed serve their sodomite-customers...and punctuated their service with, "In the words of Jesus Christ, GO AND SIN NO MORE!"? Would/could the Christian business owners have been charged with "harassment"? "Verbal assault"? "Hate Speech"?
Before you know it, parents will be compelled to have a homosexual-pedophile babysit for little Johnny, by law lest they be violating the homo-pedo of his "civil rights." Not the mention being judged as "intolerant Christian homophobes." Will little Johnny's dad (a goob employee in this example) be ostracized, fired, and be forced to apologize to the homo-pedophile (then finally attend "sensitivity training"?)
This is what happens when folks incorrectly use Scripture.
And use exploit scripture out of context, and then ONLY to help support a subversive agenda and point. The ploy doesn't quite work against those who know Scripture.

No, but the New Covenant does emphasize that it's not some self-righteous pizza maker's place to render judgement over someone else.
Paul's Epistle to the Romans:
Do Not Pass Judgment on One Another
14 As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. 2 One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. 3 Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. 4 Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. 5 One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. 9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. 10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; 11 for it is written,
As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12 So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.
No, but the New Covenant does emphasize that it's not some self-righteous pizza maker's place to render judgement over someone else.
A pitiful libertine response. No, the pizza people are not condoning sin. We are not to yoke ourselves to unbelievers:
2 Corinthians 6:14New King James Version (NKJV)
14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
Feed them when they come to us for food? Clothe them if they are in need? Be the Good Samaritan if they need our help? Yes of course. Cater an event which celebrates sin? NO. Paul is clear on that.
Put in perspective. Would a 1st Century Greek Christian be wrong for denying a pagan couple three of his sheep for a sacrifice to Diana? Of course back then, the pagans would just seize the sheep and the Greek Christian cannot be held accountable for the use of the sheep. However, in the USA, we have the 1st Amendment. The government cannot force the Christians to give up 'their sheep' for a pagan ceremony.
10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God;
You may want to ask your priest about the above passage. Brother as used in this passage is a Christian brother or sister.
If we have a Christian brother or sister who sins, we do not judge them. However, we do point out God's Holy standards. If they repent, we welcome them back; if they don't, we are not to fellowship with them. That is the context of the passage. It has nothing to do with a pagan coming to buy some sheep (pizza) for a sacrifice to Diana (wedding).
