"Religious Freedom" = Discrimination = Hate

If I can choose what to do with my body/labor, without the force and threat of people with guns forcing me to do preform with my body/labor than any religious objection is moot as it's my body/labor choice so I don't have to give a reason., which is exactly what I said previously, perhaps a 2nd reading will help you understand better?

So, for you, any laws protecting people from discrimination are contrary to your worldview?

as a side not, yes I agreed and supported the cake shop's position.

The cake shop ruling was a separate issue because, since "designing and decorating" a cake is considered a "creative expression" then it cannot be "compelled".  "Creative expression" in this case was considered "protected free-speech".

Forced labor under threat, whether it's paid for or not is still wrong imo.

their decisions should be respected, this does not mean there won't be consequences, people can ask to boycott the business, protest legally and what ever other legal means are available.  This is a more civilized and appropriate approach than threat of violence to force labor.  Don't you think?

Well nearly every job is "compelled" either by incentives or threats or both. 

Are you suggesting we should repeal the Civil Rights Act?  ...And the Americans with Disabilities Act?

I'd want to know upfront so I can find an alternative place who I could trust, who does want my business and then i could inform others.

I'd prefer they be out in the open than hiding.

so then it comes back to do you force the individual who has not agreed or bound to specific behavior and standards to an employer, do you force the sole proprietor to perform under threat of force?  

to what end?  

how can you justify such actions?

what other compelled actions should we force at gun point?

I'd prefer to know what kind of person I'm dealing with instead of someone who is hiding because of the law.

Would you want someone preparing you food who would ordinarily discriminate against you, but because of the law they can't?  I'd want to know upfront so I can find an alternative place who I could trust, who does want my business and then i could inform others.

I mean no insult when I say that this is a very privileged position that minorities may not be able to afford to adopt.

In a marketplace dictated entirely by profit if the bottom line is unaffected by prejudice it is rarely corrected. The majority of people are not disabled for example and as a result before the civil liberties act protected the disabled few businesses went to the extra expense of wheel chair ramps as the cost versus gain did not seem to justify having them. A standard was necessary in order for the disabled to merely enjoy normal services others might take for granted. In a majority christian setting a homosexual could hypothetically be refused the bulk of ordinary services and the businesses that would cater to them might abuse them in other ways (such as price gouging or offering inferior goods) since they have no alternative. We know this is possible specifically because of the conditions in America that led to the civil rights movement in the first place. 

If a gay person doesn't receive service, they can go to another store to get the service they want. 

Should this apply to Christians, too? Can I refuse service to Christians? Would a Christian make a massive ordeal out of not being served because they are a Christian? Yes, they would freak out and all hell would break loose.

We need protection for religious freedom.

And, we should have protection from religion, as well. That's only fair.

Bingo.

All laws "compel action" by threat of force.

If a sole proprietor doesn't want to "serve the public" they should open a private club.

Actions that support individual equality and the function of a peaceful society should be enforced by law. 

This was primarily meant to dissuade the kinds of @$$#$% who decided to pick on the owners of Masterpiece Cakeshop to force them out of business on account of the owner's religious beliefs that they didn't like.

Your statement is opinion stated as fact.

do they?  trying to think of what other laws actually forces you do something physically with your body, can't think of anything atm  What law forces you to work or perform work against your will?  Drawing a blank, help me out there.

If a sole proprietor doesn't want to "serve the public" they should open a private club.

isn't that his private business/property if he is the owner?

if it is he can invite people or not onto his property anytime he chooses can't he?

do we have rights over our own property?

Actions that support individual equality and the function of a peaceful society should be enforced by law. 

how about blood donations, there's always a shortage, that saves lives shouldn't that be mandatory over hurt feelings or inconvenience?

looking for some lines here.

just to be clear you seem to be fine with forcing people to work at gun point because discrimination is the greater of 2 evils.
