This one is tough. It is a job that works with the public. In jobs like that, you can’t pick and choose who you sell to or what you sell. It is prescribed by a medical practitioner.
I can see how this could certainly cause problems for Christians. Unless they find a private pharmacy that prescribes to a very certain clientele, they are going to run into these such issues.
An airline pilot can’t refuse passengers based on his or their religion, looks, smell, etc. (they can run it into the ground it turns out, but that is a whole other problem).
When you deal with the public, you are bound by what your job title states you must do. Otherwise, it is time to find a different place that fits your religious outlook or find a different job all together.

Read Justice Alito’s dissent and you will understand why that premise should not be under consideration in this case.

An airline is free to refuse service for a variety of reasons.

The family owned the pharmacy they were not employees. They were forced by Washington law to carry drugs they objected to on moral grounds. However pharmacies are free to decline to carry certain drugs for a variety of reasons. It was only refusal because of moral and religious beliefs that the state prohibited.

This will force the pharmacy to close. Which was the aim of the law to begin with. SCOTUS has 3 murderous harpies in its ranks. Expect more of the same.

Except that there will eventually be no way to be a practicing Christian and make a living at all. But that will suit the Communists quite well.
