I would say that baker is discriminating against the person, and not the event itself, since there is no association between graduation and religion.

Are you suggesting the government should be in the business of deciding what is and isn't a legitimate religion? Because I can see all kinds of wrong with that.

If I recall correctly, he also objected to selling lesbians cupcakes. Jack Phillips is a very troubled man.

In the previous case, he told them that he would sell them other things. I hadn’t heard of this, perhaps you are mistaking it with something else.
