Is the Oregon county currently denying marriage licenses to anyone preventing the practice of religion in that county? I know I could not get married by the Catholic Church without a state-issued license -- aren't these Oregon officials opening themselves up to a "biblical" lawsuit? (Pun intended)...

That's the Church's requirement, which it is free to change at any time. There's nothing in the Bible that says a government license is a prerequisite for marraige.
