Christian Baker Jack Phillips Emerges Victorious in 12-Year Court Saga, Says It Strengthened His Faith

GP:

Colorado baker Jack Phillips has spent more than a decade battling for his beliefs in the country’s courtrooms, but says his Christian convictions have only grown stronger.

Phillips has been a headline name for years, principally with his Supreme Court victory in 2018 when a 7-2 majority of the high court found he and his Masterpiece Cakeshop had been treated with unconstitutional hostility by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission.

The commission had found that Phillips had violated the civil rights of a same-sex couple who wanted him to bake a cake to celebrate their “wedding.” Phillips had refused on the grounds that his Christian beliefs would not allow him to promote gay marriage.

However, his Supreme Court victory wasn’t the end of his legal fight. A transgender attorney deliberately sought out Phillips to commission him to bake a cake to celebrate the attorney’s supposed “transition” from a man to a woman.

Phillips declined, sparking another court battle. On Oct. 8, the Colorado Supreme Court dismissed the attorney’s case against Phillips on procedural grounds, CBS News reported. more
