A Christian couple who owns a media company is suing the state of
Minnesota after being threatened with fines and imprisonment if
they refuse to make films involving same-sex marriage.
Carl and Angel Larsen, through their company Telescope Media Group,
want to enter the wedding industry, but due to their religious
beliefs do not want to create films celebrating same-sex marriages.
Minnesota’s Human Rights Act stipulates that if the owners produce
films about traditional Christian marriages between one man and one
woman, they must also produce films about unions that violate their
Christian views, CBN News reported.

representing the Larsens in the suit, said in a Tuesday news
release http://www.adfmedia.org/News/PRDetail/10627
that the couple faces steep fines, including compensatory and
punitive damages of up to $25,000, and up to 90 days in prison if
they fail to comply with Minnesota’s public accommodation law.

ADF successfully sued the state of Colorado on behalf of Christian
baker Jack Phillips, securing his right to decline to make custom
wedding cakes celebrating same-sex marriages.

the Supreme Court found Phillips had a legitimate claim “that using
his artistic skills to make an expressive statement, a wedding
endorsement in his own voice and of his own creation, has a
significant First Amendment speech component and implicates his
deep and sincere religious beliefs.”
The Court went on to note, “That consideration was compromised,
however, by the (Colorado Civil Rights) Commission’s treatment of
Phillips’ case, which showed elements of a clear and impermissible
hostility toward the sincere religious beliefs motivating his
objection.”
