People of good faith nationwide should want the Oregon Supreme Court to take the appeal of Aaron and Melissa Klein, if only to be reminded that it is possible to live peacefully as neighbors even when we disagree.

Aaron and Melissa are the bakers near Portland whose religious beliefs prevented them from custom-designing a wedding cake to express a message celebrating same-sex marriage. The Kleins came from modest backgrounds, got married early in life, and were raising their children. After years of hard work, they managed to get a little piece of the American Dream by opening their own small business, a bakery named Sweet Cakes by Melissa.
