It's not like that at all. It's more like: if you're not planning on robbing the bank or passing a bad check, you won't have any problem with showing your ID when you get to the teller.

What happens in YOUR house - is between you and your household.

You can't have it both ways. You can say "this baker can refuse service to a customer because of the baker's religious beliefs" but you can't turn around and then say "this baker can refuse to allow you into the building without a mask or proof of immunity."

Businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone, as long as it doesn't violate the customers' civil rights (except in the case of that baker and his religious beliefs, apparently). But if you come knocking at my door, and I tell you that you can't come in unless you show me your ID, you have the right to refuse to show it. And I have the right to refuse to allow you in.

Easy peasy.
