What should a Christian do when convictions violate a tolerant society?

What should a Christian do when convictions violate a tolerant society?: "nswer: There is much controversy in our culture today surrounding Christian businesses being forced to photograph gay engagements, bake cakes or provide flowers for gay weddings, or rent rooms to gay couples.

There’s no way to make a blanket statement on this issue that would apply to all believers in all situations."

He also tells me (in his own language) when he wants something to eat or drink.  Every night, at around 6:00 PM, he goes into the back yard and speaks with another dog  a couple of doors down (in the language of dogese).  The dog he speaks to him always answers.  Do elephants or dolphins have a language in which they speak to each other? How about whales? Of course they do.  Parrots manage to talk without vocal cords."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Noah and Prophecy.: "“Noah” is the first movie we have done about prophecy.

In that infamous interview with Charles Gibson of ABC News, Obama referred to his “Muslim Faith, I mean Christian Faith” when asked about it, and otherwise claims to be a Christian."
