The court did not decide if the state has the ability to force the baker to make the cake.

The Court has no constitutional authority to interfere with these affairs of the State of Colorado which is up to the people of Colorado to decide. Sure this one looks like a favorable decision. But tyranny will end up killing you and unconstitutional federal acts and decisions are tyranny.

The government, consistent with the Constitution’s guarantee of free exercise, cannot

That "government" the First Amendment points to is ONLY the Federal government, NOT state government.

CONGRESS shall make no law...prohibiting the free exercise... Amendment I.

The First Amendment is pointed DIRECTLY at the feds and NOWHERE else.

"That "government" the First Amendment points to is ONLY the Federal government, NOT state government."

Long established USSC case law has ruled that the first amendment is incorporated into the 14th amendment and applicable to the states thereby.

The First Amendment has been applied to the States via the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment. Regarding the Free Exercise Clause, see Cantwell v. Connecticut, 310 U.S. 296 (1940).

The Supreme court is superior to any other court or Tribunal right? Isn’t that specifically stated in the Constitution.

So....you believe a state has the right to tell you not to be a Christian. It is fine as long as the Federal Government does not say so.

Interesting approach. Not legally sound, but interesting.
