And you missed the entire point of my post. It would be unwise of me to further explain it. In both cases you are forcing someone to act against their faith, statutes be damned. One other thing, you must learn to differentiate between theory and actualization. I did not make such an assertion.
What is so hard about people making allowances for a person's faith? Is it necessary that they have to tout the law over the religious beliefs of someone else? Worship the laws of man over the laws of God, in essence.
First question, do you think that a business should be allowed to discriminate against blacks, Jews, Mexicans, women, handicapped?
Second question, do you think that if the owner of a business claims they have a religious belief that they shouldn't serve blacks, Jews, Mexicans, women, handicapped that they should be granted a special exception?

In order:
Yes.
Not applicable.
Exactly. If we recognize the private property rights of the business owner, then the second question becomes irrelevant as there will be no need to grant "special privileges" so that someone can claim religious reasons to discriminate based on race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, sex or sexual orientation.
