Based on this SCOTUS ruling, as an #atheist, I can now deny service to a religious person… I mean, it should go both ways, if a religious person can deny service to a gay couple, I can deny service to a religious bigot!

Though, if a seller tells me they don’t want to provide me service because of their beliefs I will happily take my money elsewhere, but what if the only pharmacy in town wants to deny me service because of their beliefs? That should not be allowed.

    Nobody ever asked this “web designer” to design a website for a LGBTQIA+ wedding. This is a created farce, about a “what if”. This person creates web templates, and doesn’t want LGBTQIA+ to be able to buy them as anyone else could. Conservative donors cherry picked this to ride it up the line to get their time in front of the corrupt, broken SCOTUS.

    This allows a person to say that, if they FEEL that whatever their work is is a demonstration of art or self expression, they can limit who receives it… A.K.A. “I put love into all the food I make at this diner I own, and my religion is for white, Christians only. We don’t serve food to none of the other non-whites. You need to leave!”
