The justices, in a 7-2 decision, faulted the Colorado Civil Rights Commission's handling of the claims brought against Jack Phillips, saying it had showed a hostility to religion. In doing so, the commission violated his religious rights under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
But the court did not issue a definitive ruling on the circumstances under which people can seek exemptions from anti-discrimination laws based on their religious views. source
Let's
get something straight (no pun intended.) Businesses are not refusing to
serve people who are homosexual. Christian-owned businesses are simply
not wanting to use their art to participate in practices that are clearly
wrong. That would include a baker refusing to make a cake with a Nazi
symbol on top, or any other offensive depiction.
In almost every case where a business owner has been harassed and sued, often into bankruptcy, the homosexuals suing have been previous customers - sometimes for years.
I know many people do not agree with me on this point, but anti-discrimination laws are nothing more than weapons for a different type of discrimination. The constitution was not designed to soothe your constantly ruffled and offended feathers.
A person should be able to set parameters within their business operation whether you like it or not. The free market will sort it out post-haste.
