    Yes, actions, not beliefs. People can believe whatever the hell they like. They don’t actually get to act on those beliefs in all cases though.

    Yes, they fucking do in this case. How they go about doing that is when discrimination could arise.

    They don’t get to discriminate if they want to run a business in society.

    It’s not discimination. They’re not stopping these people from something everyone else gets. They’re saying they won’t do it.

    What’s your solution here if you think this is somehow discrimination? To stop “discrimination” all Musilims, Christians, Eastern orthodox, Catholics, some Buddhists, Hindus, and the Jews are now abolished from photography services…to stop discrimination.

    Or do you have some practical plan better than what we already have which is…

    “I would like you to do this.”

    “I won’t do that based on my beliefs.”

    “Fair enough, I’ll find someone else.” “I’m going to shame you through public court and media, to obviously lose, but I don’t like that the person you are isn’t what I want.”
