I would never think of going to neo-nazi cake designer or wedding photographer for my Jewish wedding. Even if the law is on my side I think I would try to find so someone different.

I think Mr. Philips is in a lose/lose. Even if he defies his own conscience, It would not surprise if he then faces another “discrimination” lawsuit when his clients are not happy with the quality of his services.

Give a fascist a stick, and he is sure going to use it, generally on us peasants.

As the Reason.com article points out, they are not judges, so Mr. Phillips could simply tell them to take a hike. Where would they get the legal authority to enforce anything?
