Should it always be illegal for a bakery owner to refuse services for an event/cause he disagrees with? Should it always be legal? Should it depend on which event/cause is being refused? And if so, how to identify which causes can be legally refused and which cannot?
It depends on the context.
If you say you will make a wedding cake, but won’t make a wedding cake for same-sex weddings, that should be illegal. There is no fundamental difference between the two cakes. You are discriminating.
Same if you refuse to make a cake for an interracial wedding.
