Today, Jack Phillips and those supporting him are trying to defend his religious liberty. It’s not just about him or Masterpiece Cakeshop, though. This is a case that’s going to have ramifications on the entire nation.

In an article that he wrote for USA Today, Phillips expressed his views. This line encapsulates his entire argument:
“Just as I shouldn’t be able to use the law to force others to design something that promotes my beliefs, others shouldn’t be able to force me to design a cake that celebrates theirs.”
