It's ironic you would decry her religious freedom under the law by forcing her to violate her ethics for gay rights.
Her freedom of religion is only to follow whatever fairtale she chooses.
It does not allow her to impose it on others, which is what she is doing here.
I notice you didn't respond to my question either
Her religious freedom is protected under law in the work place. It allows her to be reasonably accomodated:

As for your example, I wouldn't sincerely care if anyone denied me service because of a deeply held religious belief. I would simply find service elsewhere.
Like fuck you would, you'd be up on your christian high horse hollering religious persecution for the whole world to hear, even more so if it was a evil atheist that refused you service.
