Thirty North Carolina magistrates in North Carolina are all refusing to conduct homosexual “marriages.” According to the report:
More than 30 magistrates in North Carolina have refused to perform weddings. But thanks to a new state law, they were able to do so legally.
Right after the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage in June, the state passed a law allowing officials to opt out of performing all marriages.
The law exempts court officials with a “sincerely held religious objection” and is designed for those opposing gay marriage.
The law’s original sponsor, Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger, said it’s probably preventing situations like the one in Kentucky.
“It’s keeping folks from having to choose between their job and their religious beliefs. I think that’s important,” he said.
Berger said so far the law hasn’t caused any problems.
“I think the law is working very well,” he said.
Only Utah has a similar law.
Kim Davis has been jailed by the American government for refusing to submit to the homosexual agenda. This only shows that the time is now coming when Christians are going to have to fight. The time is now coming when God is using persecution to sift out the saints from the hirelings. Carla Fiorina, the “conservative” who so many are praising, has proven herself to be a Jezebel, slamming Kim Davis for her righteous decision, saying:
Given the role that she’s playing, given the fact that the government is paying her salary, I think that is not appropriate. Now that’s my personal opinion
Those Tarheels!!
God Bless Em, GREATLY!
the line has been drawn!
How long before this law is brought before the SCOTUS and is overturned?
For later
. So the North Carolina Magistrates are not in South Carolina? Glad they cleared that up.
Thirty out of how many?
That is going to make some Federal Judges very angry.
Make it a national movement. The jailing of Kim Davis may have just stirred up a shit storm for them. It would be well deserved at this point.
Correction: Kim Davis has been jailed by an un-American government for refusing to submit to the homosexual agenda.
I wonder how many times Justice Scalia pokes his head in the liberal justice’s doorways and says “Told ya so”.
Good. All the queer couples can get in a closet, close the door, and 'perform' on each other in there.
But thanks to a new state law, they were able to do so legally.
Excellent!
Mine, too. But there's another catch. If you really want to adhere to God's word straight from Jesus' mouth, you wouldn't issue licenses nor marry anyone who was divorced, with the exception of that "except" clause I've never been sure how to interpret.
Other than that, she is following her conscience, and I am praying for strength for her. I think she has been targeted by activists flocking to her courthouse. They could easily get a license in another country in KY. How much trouble is that?
Texas has the same religious exemption for those officials not complying with the law. They cannot be fired for following their consciences.
Carly Fiorina has come out of the closet as a Hillary clone in this situation. She should be rejected by Christians.
Where does the bible say that?
Not until a liberal Supreme dies and we have a republican president and congress with cojones.
Amen! I Stand With Them!
“Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God”
How Long?
After a few hundred murderers are released to make room for the ‘intolerant’ believers in religion.
Say, what’s being done with those Jews lately?
