It would be interesting what the legality would be for kicking a Supreme Court Justice out for being straight.

which gives my stated positions more credibility than yours. 
This is that appeal to authority fallacy you are always applying inappropriately because you are NOT an authority on anything 

It’s rather banal, to be frank.
Always with the banal. Your greatest hits!


That’s nothing more than appeal to authority fallacy without credibility.
Unbelievable. You have no credibility yet you always claim to be some kind of legal expert.

Well religion is also a protected class though, so because of that i dont think they could be forced to make something against their religion

So a Muslim webmaster can refuse to work for Christians?

Religion is an internal affair, so one could justify any discrimination on any basis by saying it is a religious belief, the KKK claims to be a Christian organization,

The Supremes have opened the floodates of discrimination.

Again, i see where you are coming from and i definitely agree to a certain point,  however remember that the website they were asking for was ABOUT lgbtq, so if a Muslim webmaster was asked to make a christian website i dont think that anyone would be angry if they refused.

So while you cant be refused anything due to your sexual orientation, there will always be an exception if it directly has to with said sexual oreintation

The ruling is nebulous at best, my original point stands, "The simple fact is the ruling is going to allow people who want to discriminate to discriminate".  Bigots always justify bigotry, the Supremes have allowed that.

Just look at TWS' posts, for him, racism is a religiously held belief.

Do you think freedom of association should be abolished in modern society?

The critics say the exact same thing about the Affirmative Action SCOTUS decision, namely that Harvard can still continue to exclude Asians if they so want to. They just can't brag about doing it now under the pretense that it is legally justified.

Harvard doesn’t “exclude” Asians. They just don’t want to be like UC Irvine which is 36% Asian.
