No he wasn't. He was asked to bake a cake, something he started a business to do.He is being asked to work at an event he finds sinful.
Doesn't that same logic apply to racists? If someone decided being racist was part of their religion would you be okay with them denying service to black people then?Why force him to work in this one instance when plenty of others are out there to take up the slack?
Sure it does. Opening and operating a business is a privilege. It requires a business license. Its not free. It comes with responsibilities. Asking you to do the thing you started a business to do can not rational be argued to violate your religion.Commerce doesn't override free exercise in this case.
