then the rhetoric about needing to pay the price when one can demonstrate an issue of conscience should go away.

Not at all.

For example, Joe should never be forced to give a massage to someone he considered inappropriate. So if he is sued and loses, the remedy can't be that he gives this gay guy free massages for the rest of their lives. The remedy would have to be something else--like losing his license or paying compensation or something.

saying that he should not be forced to act against his conscience is not giving him license to act consistent with his conscience but against the law or against the interests of others. It's only freeing him from being forced to do certain acts, not entitling him to engage in whatever other acts he chooses.
