This week the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. At issue is whether a  business owner has the right to refuse to fill an order for a wedding cake from a gay couple, based on his religious convictions.  The Court has an opportunity to issue a landmark decision interpreting the First Amendment of the Constitution.
