Sometimes comparisons need explanations but sometimes explanations don't make comparisons work. (I need a "scratching my head" emoji!) Take these two recent examples. Creating a cake masterpiece to celebrate a wedding vs asking for a pork chop in a Jewish deli. Spending $547 billion on defense instead of creating a free college plan costing $75 billion vs spending $54 on a samurai sword instead of buying $75 groceries. In the first, i don't see how the cake, which is what they DO at the bakery, is anything like going into a deli and asking for something they don't even carry. ?? Wouldn't it be more like asking the deli to mix foods they have in a way that goes against their beliefs? (Maybe asking for cheese on a meat sandwich?) And on the second, defense vs free college vs play defense and necessities - huh? |

The pork chop analogy makes perfect sense to me. When you go into an establishment that you KNOW doesn't carry what you're asking for - BECAUSE of Religious reasons - and demand a product they don't advertise or sell. It's a perfect analogy to me. The one baker didn't even sell Halloween cupcakes because they were very publicly and and openly Christian. The Samurai sword analogy is just stupid. |
