The 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act basically says that no federal law shall substantially burden a person’s exercise of religion. The government has to prove that it will not hinder their religion or that stopping said practice is in the best interest of the public (greater good). The facts are a little different in this case, but it would set up an interesting show down on what constitutes a "real" religion.

Size isn't the issue as much as history or tradition.  It would keep me from starting up a church tomorrow saying it is against our church principles to serve black people. 

You guys are arguing against some measures that prevent discrimination for the sake of discrimination because you just don't like a group of people.
