Anti-Gay Baker Sues Colorado Again Jack Phillips first entered the public eye for refusing to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple, citing religious reasons. The Supreme Court ruled in his favor. Now he's suing the state again for opposing his refusal to bake a cake to "celebrate a gender transition." Phillips is suing Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper, the director of the Colorado Civil Rights Division and the state's attorney general. According to the lawsuit, the baker refused to make the cake because it violated his religious belief that biological sex is determined by God. Lawsuit filed by Jack Phillips
