By Ray CortopassiIndianapolis — An Indianapolis bakery is under fire from the gay and lesbian community over a choice not to serve a diversity group.
A campus organization said it was denied service in what's become a flashpoint in the fight for equal rights.
This is what they were after: a mulitcolored cupcake to celebrate "National Coming Out Day" next month; a rainbow confection to honor the diversity on the campus of IUPUI. But the student who had the order placed at Just Cookies was told no.
"We're right on the cusp of being equal with anyone else, I don't know why they would do that," said student Shan Parker.
That student's partner and close friend are both troubled by the refusal. They believe it shows Indianapolis has a ways to go to embrace the gay and lesbian community...
"I explained we're a family-run business, we have two young, impressionable daughters and we thought maybe it was best not to do that," said co-owner David Stockton...

"No. We will not become accomplices to your sin."
Good on Mr. David Stockton and the other co-owner.
We need to stand up to the Sodomites least we offend the Lord for keeping quiet.
