To the Editor:Re “We Can Find Common Ground on Gay Rights and Religious Liberty,” by Jonathan Rauch and Peter Wehner (Op-Ed, nytimes.com, June 22):Now that L.G.B.T.Q. When the Civil Rights Act of 1964 banned race discrimination, some business owners objected. The law included religious exemptions in some contexts, but not for public-facing businesses like restaurants. The Supreme Court declined to create a new exemption in 1968, leaving intact the balance struck in the Civil Rights Act. The Equality Act wouldn’t change that.
