Some say I am terrible for this but the gay couple should have simply found another person to bake their cake. Move on and find another cake baker. No lawsuits and no government involvement.

Religion only has one product to sell, which is exclusivity, an access to god/wisdom/salvation, which others can not have, otherwise it would just be deism, which never made a cent for anyone. And if there is an in-group, then there has to be an out-group, and if you really want to sell the product strongly, then strong divisions are needed. ( "Your religion comes with a side serving of hate and loathing at no extra cost, thank you for your custom." )

I like that.

There are many religions/sects around the world that are preventing people to do acts of kindness, even if it means that person will suffer greatly and they still don't care.

That is 100% correct.

But Gawd is more important...... (NOT!)
