Strange thing, don’t remember Saul of Tarsus following Christian teachings or principles before his experience on the road to Damascus.

Well DUH!
Isn't that to be expected?
People generally don't follow the tenets of a religion prior to their conversion.
After conversion they generally do

Sorta reminds me of the lobsters you see in the big tank at the grocery store. They’re always trying to get out but if one gets a bit further out than the others, his buddies drag him right back down.

No one is more vicious than lefties going after other lefties off the reservation.

Duuuuuh. Following Christ doesn’t happen until accepting Him.

The point she's getting at is that the left decries slut shaming...unless they're the ones who are doing the shaming...

I guess it’s a safe bet that Pastor Hans isn’t Missouri Synod.

Wasn’t there a federal court finding just recently that religious convictions were not necessary to act on moral grounds? Something about denial of due process?

Just as they LOOOVVVE pointing out homos on the right and making fun of it - when it’s on the right.

Remember, it’s all smoke & mirrors. It’s not really the surface issue for these jackasses. It’s REALLY about communism and pushing it by any means possible.

Wow. She sounds like a real mess. But as always, there is more to the story.

As Mollie Hemingway over at the Federalist points out, Nelson buries in the story that Davis only converted to Christianity four years ago:

What’s also interesting is that Davis is a registered and elected Democrat, which we mentioned yesterday:

Democrat Kim Davis defeated Republican John Cox on Tuesday to claim the office of Rowan County clerk as the successor to her mother, Jean Bailey, who has held the position for 37 years.

Maybe Nelson should have written about her being a Democrat instead of being a Christian ‘hypocrite’. Oh well I guess he wanted to attack her instead of being honest about her life and principles.

As a side note, wouldn’t it be great if the media paid attention to Planned Parenthood for selling aborted baby parts like they are paying attention to Kim Davis? Hello media bias, again.

I figured there was more to this story.. media idiots.

That said, I think she is out of line, she is an employee of the State and if she is truly opposed to doing this, she should resign.

And so what....I don’t know any one who follows the tenets of a religion until they convert to it
