Certainly, you are not so naive as to think that legislators are not going to respond to politcal pressure and change their minds.
I agree the CofC is a powerful lobbying body, but it isn't all powerful. For example, the Atlanta CofC - certainly a powerful body, if there ever was one - and many of the Big Mules in Atlanta tried to convince the state legislature not to approve an amendment to the GA Constitution banning same sex marriage. The legislature did not respond and passed the amendment.
If you were unable to muster the same political power as the SC CofC, then the fault is yours.
