Supreme Court backs Christian baker who spurned gay coupleWASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday handed a victory
on narrow grounds to a Colorado Christian baker who refused for religious reasons to make a wedding cake for a gay couple, stopping short of setting a major precedent allowing people to claim exemptions from anti-discrimination laws based on religious beliefs.
The justices, in a
7-2 decision, said the
Colorado Civil Rights Commission showed an impermissible hostility toward religion when it found that baker Jack Phillips violated the state's anti-discrimination law by rebuffing gay couple David Mullins and Charlie Craig in 2012. The state law bars businesses from refusing service based on race, sex, marital status or sexual orientation.
The ruling concluded that
the commission violated Phillips' religious rights under the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment.
Two of the court's four liberals, Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, joined the five conservative justices in the ruling
