The Supreme Court hasn’t ruled that businesses can discriminate. In fact the court ruling specifically states that they are not ruling on the merits of religious expression and public accommodation. The ruling was that the lower court was rude to the baker by saying true things, so they granted him relief.
If you run a for profit business you must serve all the public. Period. We’ve had this fight before, we used to allow people to discriminate based on their personal or religious beliefs. That didn’t work out so well. Now we say you can’t do that. If you sell product x to the public, you have to sell it to ALL the public. Don’t like it? Join up with a church and work as a non-profit.
I have NEVER heard of anyone being bothered for doing Christian prayers in public. I have have heard of publicly sponsored activities being shut down because that would be a government endorsement of religion. Which is wrong. But you know what I have heard of? A lot? Openly Muslim, Sikh, Jews and atheists being harassed. Non-Christians who pray in public being harassed.
