She obviously does not disagree with the terms of the job to which she was elected, which was to issue marriage licenses to people of opposite genders, not to men and monkey, or women and whales or men with men, which Kentucky law forbade.
Is your position that one should never take a job if there is a possibility that it may require you to violate your conscience, due to a change of job description?
but if she finds her assigned duties at variance with her beliefs, she needs to resign or at least delegate the issuance of those licenses.
She wanted to do the latter,
Davis only asked that the Kentucky marriage license forms be changed so her name would not appear on them. She would record any license without her name affixed. Marriage licenses remain in county records permanently. Davis said, “I never imagined a day like this would come, where I would be asked to violate a central teaching of Scripture and of Jesus Himself regarding marriage. To issue a marriage license which conflicts with God’s definition of marriage, with my name affixed to the certificate, would violate my conscience.” - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3333185/posts?page=77
Meanwhile, it is hardly right or reasonable that everyone much become unemployed due to a change in job description. Do you realize that activists who are cheering the imprisonment of Davis are working to require every employee affirms sodomy, under the banner of diversity and racial equality? Will you just quit when you must basically salute the flag of Sodomy to be a team player?

No.
My position is that if the conditions for continued service in that elected public-sector position become at variance with the officeholder’s faith, that officeholder should seek a workable solution to mitigate that conflict. Did she do everything she could’ve done — without compromising her beliefs— to avoid this situation? Was she elected to cite God’s authority in her position as county clerk? Is God’s authority a component in the law she took an oath as an elected official to uphold?
