1993년에 연방 정부는 연방 종교 자유 회복법을 통과시켰습니다. 이 법은 불법 마약 피요테와 관련된 종교 의식 때문에 일자리를 잃을 위험에 처한 아메리카 원주민을 보호하기 위한 것이었습니다. 1997년 미국 대법원은 의회가 1993년에 RFRA를 통과시키는 데 한계를 넘어섰으며 그 법은 주에서 통과된 법률이 아닌 연방법에만 적용된다고 판결했습니다. 그 이후로 미국의 22개 주는 "종교의 자유"법의 자체 버전을 통과시켰습니다. 이 법을 지지하는 사람들은 정부가 종교 기업과 교회가 소유주의 신념에 반하는 생활 방식에 참여하는 고객에게 봉사하도록 강요해서는 안 된다고 주장합니다. 이 법의 지지자들은 1992년 이후 정치적 맥락이 바뀌었고 주에서는 현재 게이와 레즈비언 커플을 차별할 목적으로 자체 버전의 법을 통과시키고 있다고 주장합니다.

if you're going to deny service to a group of people, then be honest and own it. make it public. "because of my religious beliefs i cannot offer services to homosexuals" for example. that way i won't even waste my time coming into your establishment and will simply go to someone who will offer me services
@2JH4ZVK3세3Y
Private and not govt run businesses should have the right to deny service to anyone .... Period! It is their business & govt & courts should not get involved. Most will still serve a person because they cannot afford to turn away business ... So let those few who do not wish to serve a person for any reason, do so. I would not even want a person to serve me if I knew they had such hate and distain for me, so why would I insist upon them serving me out of principal.

As long as the business discriminates based upon all old testament activities equally: Wearing mixed cloths, women talking in church, women must wear hats, only eating animals with cloven hoof, if your brother dies suddenly you must impregnate his wife, etc. In other words, they must discriminate equally.

Privately owned businesses offering a non-essential (codified in law) product or service should be able to deny that product or service based on religious beliefs which they have demonstrably adhered (one could sue if they showed the business or it's owners have not applied their religious views uniformly or the religion is not recognized).
@2JD9K2N3세3Y
If you are in business you should not allow religion, sex, color, etc. influence how you treat your customers. You are entitled to your beliefs and they are to theirs. If your beliefs are so strong that you want to deny service then you need to have a private business where only those who subscribe to your beliefs can be served. Limits your business...your choice...
