FWIW, I don't think this is an easy case nor one that our legal doctrine or structures handles well. I think the best way for a photographer to handle this is just to refuse for no reason. That is not the same as doing it for an illegal reason. I am not satisfied that that is a good solution -- but it may be the best solution.
Anyone have a principled, workable solution that functionally distinguishes between religious-based beliefs that racial intermarriage is wrong and that same-sex marriage is wrong?
