Lesbian Wisconsin Senator: First Amendment Makes Clear Christians Must Participate In Gay Weddings

What she’s saying is that the First Amendment means that you can believe in your heart and mind what you want, but you can’t act on it without federal permission, as far as religion goes. As to her point about a religious objection to providing medical care, Christianity doesn’t allow for letting gays die by refusing them medical care, so that’s a red herring. Big difference between refusing to participate in a wedding and depraved heart manslaughter by refusing to save a life.

“Certainly the first amendment says that in institutions of faith that there is absolute power to, you know, to observe deeply held religious beliefs. I don’t think it extends far beyond that. We’ve seen the set of arguments play out in issues such as access to contraception. Should it be the individual pharmacist whose religious beliefs guides whether a prescription is filled, or in this context, they’re talking about expanding this far beyond our churches and synagogues to businesses and individuals across this country. I think there are clear limits that have been set in other contexts and we ought to abide by those in this new context across America.” – Sen. Baldwin

Actually, isn’t it more like they are preparing to, ummm, “attach” the boys to the men and the girls to the women and not in very wholesome ways?

Liberals can't really read

They can read, but they decide what the words mean.

Liberals = Humpty Dumpty

But this can’t be. I thought after this ruling, homos will get “married” and leave everyone else alone?

These lesbo homos are just plain sick in the head. They are abnormal and will never be normal in any sense of the word.

The Daily Mail today showed photos of flag rallies in Florida, Mississippi and other states. They claimed one turned out a thousand people. Not civil disobedience but that may be up next.

No one can go to a minister and demand that he marry them, or baptize them.

As of right now, that is the case. But all it will take is one court case of some Marxist judge siding with the fag couple that a church does not have the right to turn away a couple from matching there while re-writing the First amendment Freedom of Religion clause.

I can see this happening out west. A Marxist federal circuit court judge rules that a traditional Bible Believing church violated the fags right to marry and that the church's First Amendment Freedom of Religion rights is not applicable.

Next the Marxist dominated court 9th circuit court of appeals upholds the lower courts rulings that a church that refuses to marry a fag couple can face both civil and criminal sanctions if they refuse and that the Church's First Amendment rights do not apply.

Then the Supreme Court rules 5-4 that even established, traditional Bible Believing churches can receive civil and criminal sanctions from the state if they refuse to marry fag couples.

Kennedy would likely be the swing vote and write the opinion that even traditional churches cannot refuse to marry fags without sanctions and they have no First Amendnent rights in this matter, in spite of his written opinion in the fag marriage case that said traditional churches cannot be legally forced to marry fags.

If they say that, then we just need to move ON them! You don’t suppose they they are at least some of those who voted for Romney, do you?
