A Taste of Praise

I believe that God loves us all whether we are straight, gay, white, black, etc. This movie was very bigoted to me. It offended me that God was used to justify this baker's actions. It was just a cake for crying sake. They did not invite him to the wedding and how does him not making the cake offend God. Stupid movie and poor actors. God loves us all, remember that people 🙏. Making a wedding cake for a gay couple does not mean you agree to their way of life. You are just providing a service just like for anyone else who would want a custom cake. I almost shut this movie off in hopes of a better outcome but was very disappointed in how it ended. Don't use your beliefs in God to impair your humanity and love towards any human being.

Not a brilliant film but an important contribution to an argument. Should an individual be forced by the state to speak something that they disagree with? Should a baker be forced to make MAGA cakes for Trump, or Vote Biden cakes?

It was clear that this was not a denial of service since the baker would have happily made a non-custom cake for the wedding and indeed offered to do so. I am sure those who are against the baker would consider it acceptable for a company to refuse to make a cake celebrating the overturning of Roe V Wade.

The film is sympathetic to a man who was forced into the limelight and the impact that it had on his family and business by those who could have easily gone elsewhere.

5.4 stars.

No production is going to touch this film with a ten foot pole. This was obviously produced by a Christian company who wants to tell the story from the "other" perspective. What I recall in the news was that this baker refused to bake a cake for a gay couple's wedding. I never heard any additional details.

According to this movie, the baker refused to make a custom wedding cake, not just a generic one. Apparently, his bakery specializes in custom cakes, the most creative and amazing ones in the area. So, the fact he refused to make a "custom" cake might not be so bad. Apparently, he did offer to make a generic cake, I don't know, but I don't think so. I just read some article about it, and it doesn't mention the level of cake involved. Does it matter? Well, he feels it's rebellion against his God to make a custom cake for any group or person that represents a lifestyle or ideology that opposes Christianity. He was willing to sell any of the other generic goods to them, however, just not anything custom made. So, what's the difference? Think about it. So what if a Muslim wanted a cake for their wedding? What if he was to make a cake for a very wealthy Wall Street mogul who requested it be carved into the shape of a dollar sign and the occasion was about being rich; and the baker knew secretly that his wealth was from a Ponzi scheme? Or, what if it was for a Planned Parenthood employee party? What if it was for a celebrity that he really admires, but he knows that celebrity contributes to the campaign of a shady politician?

Think long and hard on this. Life is nothing but uncertainty, gray areas and blurred lines. In my opinion, he should have made the cake, as long as it did not perpetuate the type of lifestyle he disagreed with or advertise anything abominable or deviant in its presentation. What if the couple simply wanted a really cool cake with flowers or a sports car? That would be generic enough. He seems to have felt it was sacrilegious or evil to be in a same sex relationship, so he wanted nothing to do with them whatsoever. Again, where do you draw the line? You have to be really careful when you "stand up" for your beliefs, because if not consistent across the board, you are only insulting yourself and frankly, taking your God's name in vain.

Here's something somewhat surreal, I can point out at least four gay actors, beside the gay couple. The pastor, two of the bakers and the drama teacher. Am I missing something? This film is a conradiction.

A Taste of Praise is a film that belongs in the class of horribly bigoted and stupid films. Much like Audacity, Accidental Activist and Right To Believe this film is another story of bigotry but the film sides with the prejudice ones.

Its based on a true case of a gay couple wanting a cake from a bakery but the baker does not approve of gay couples because of his religion. I thought its weird that in the film the main baker has tattoos. I guess he just cherry picks the Bible. Granted he could of got those before he found his religion but why show them off or not get them remove if hes so strict? Basically this film goes where you think it will. Its a persecution complex film. I felt nothing for the lead protagonist though. This is the biggest 'Who Cares?' film you could imagine. Its also funny that dramatic music plays anytime the baker is told something about gays.

A Tate of Praise is a horribly anti gay bigoted trashy piece of junk that takes pride in its bigotry. Or maybe this was a tool to convert people to atheism. Well its good to be laughed though.
