Now, will the conservatives who are so adamant about religious freedom support a Muslim who works for the Department of Motor Vehicles if the Muslim refuses to issue driver's licenses to women? Will they support an Amish airline pilot who refuses to fly a plane, but still wants to keep his job?

Muslims and Jews could also, under this law, say that they refuse service to Christians, and everybody could refuse service to atheists. We are not asking Christian clergy go marry gay people, but "freedom of religion" is another way of saying "freedom to discriminate."

Sure, the cashiers could look at what is being purchased and ring up only part of it, then say, oh, for polyester/cotton shirts, you may need to go to George over there. He is a Muslim, and so he can ring it up, but you can't also have him ring up the bacon bits. It would get ridiculous.
