However, with Masterpiece, the Christian legal case was strengthened.

You are correct. If there was one holding from that case, it is that the the state MUST give deference to, and treat as valid, a sincerely held religious belief. SJWs in positions of power cannot dismiss a religious doctrine as an extension of the Nazis. That was made very clear by seven justices of the SCOTUS.

The Court also thought it had to go “awwwww” about the LGBT crowd, but at least it said so far that it wasn’t going to force Christian faith to be what it is not.

And in a way... the church should also go “awwwww” about the LGBT crowd, but not in such a way as to tell them that their sin is the way to go in order to get ultimate fulfillment. There generally are a lot of horror stories behind most LGBT lives. It’s rare for a person of reasonable upbringing to sit in a chair, cogitate deeply, and say Ah! I’m going to be “gay.” If it happens, it is not the case that Christians want to concentrate on. That person may well wend his or her way to hell on his or her own. But how about the 99.99% that are the rest?
