What stops the Orwellian 'relig freedom' bills from targeting others besides lgbt?

LGBT rights are the target of these bills, but others could also face discrimination because religionists think they're 'evil': atheists, wiccans, pagans, pro-choicers...

WWJD? His followers' gospels certainly suggest he'd condemn such bigotry.
Christians! Why have you forsaken me?

This well organized effort is a horror show. It will end up at a SCOTUS that could make a ruling that could change this country for the worse for a very long time.

The racists, xenophobes, women-haters, anti-Semites, etc., now have licenses to discriminate.

In their madness, they've opened the door to any sort of discrimination on the basis of "religion".

That suits bigots of all stripes.
