It means that if a Christian asks you to design a website with messages that violate your religious beliefs then you can refuse. If I as a satanist believe that a woman's right to abortion is sacred then I can refuse to design a website with an anti-abortion message. I can't simply refuse to design a website for a Christian. Not saying I agree with the ruling, just explaining what it means.

The ruling says you don't have to design a website that violates any sincerely held beliefs, not just religious beliefs.

So if you are gay and a Catholic asked you to design a website promoting "Marriage is for one man and one woman", you can refuse. Before the ruling, you might have been found to be discriminating against Catholics.

Curious, why don’t you agree with the ruling?

Because it's a shit ruling that says discriminating against people is a form of speech. At least that's why I think it's a horrible ruling.

That’s not what it says.
