Are Churches Now Required to Marry Gays? *Vanity*

[grobdriver]

Next Big Gov is going to use quotas to force churches to preach same sex marriage.

Forcing a minister in a church to conduct a marriage ceremony for a couple of queers will be tantamount to preaching same sex "marriage".

[ansel12]

Of course not, churches and Mosques and Mormon Temples are not required to do anything with marriage one way or the other.

[CodeToad]

Do they get tax exempt status? Then, yes, they will be required. Guaranteed.

[CodeToad]

We need to force the muslim issue big time.

[CommieCutter]

I think our side needs to push it on Islam in he US.

There is already saber rattling by the sodomite hordes. Some are even calling for the mandatory excising of condemnation of homosexuality from the Bible.

Be sure that church’s tax exempt status are already on the chopping block.

“When the dust settles we should all head down to our local mosque to get gay married to a dog.”

OK, that was over the top, you can’t marry a dog. But marry another guy in the mosque and both of you bring your service dogs.

[Cronos]

Yes. Otherwise it is discrimination. They must also marry man to chair etc.

It all depends upon what the word “dignity” means. The peter puffers and carpet munchers on the Rubber Stamp Court pontificated on the dignity that gay people are entitled to by being given the right to marry. So, will the black robed idiots also now show concern for the “dignity” of people who have deeply held beliefs who object to engaging in a ceremony which deeply offends them?

"Be sure that church’s tax exempt status are already on the chopping block."

Serve God or serve the dollar. The choice has to be clear now.

In the time before the next presidential election, a ruling will come that will banish Christianity entirely from this (once) free Republic of the United States of America. The goal of the hussein regime is to impose a marxist variant of sharia law nationwide to establish a caliphate. Christianity and Judaism stand in the way of that plan and therefore both must be abolished. In light of the recent rulings from the far-left SCOTUS, the Tenth Amendment is now dead and it paves the way to permitting only atheism, islam and satanism to be practiced in this (onetime) land of liberty.

But by the grace of God there still are Second Amendment remedies!

The point is that things are going to change for the church, now - very quickly.

[CIB-173RDABN]

Churches are private organization in the sense they have memberships.

They can set up their own rules on allowing nonmembers to be married in their church.

Of course with this Supreme Court that now rules on “fairness” and not law, then who knows anymore.

The bigger question is what happens with citizens no longer feel their government is listening to them?

[The Louiswu]

I would think a priest can refuse to marry anyone for any reason

[strange1]

I suspect there’ll be a lawsuit before the end of the year. the Church will be required to perform it or lose it’s tax exempt status.

[all the best]

Very, very few churches stood for the right of free association and property rights. Churches have not been for freedom for a long time. It is a fundamental right to associate with whom we choose and to run our businesses as we choose.
How does it go. First they came for the .. and I wasn’t one so I did nothing. Then when they finally came for me there was nobody left to stand up for me. I wish I could gloat, but I can’t.

I’ll hedge a bit and say that you can never lose your religious freedom. You can be tortured or executed, but you can put up a hell of a fight before it comes to that. Jesus talked about shepherds defending their flocks. American churches are not led by shepherds, but rather, sheep leading the sheep. As long as that doesn’t change, then the hedge is that, yes, you can lose your religious freedom. Or one can be like Jesus, and stand his ground regardless of what the church sheep think or how they behave.

[al_c]

That will be next on the agenda.

I predicted this years ago when states started legalizing these so-called marriages. The churches will be their next target.
