That's something no clergy member should be faced with

The key point on which all else rests.

These alleged clergy can perform all the fake marriage ceremonies they want, no one is stoping them.
That doesn’t mean there must be government sanction.

What’s the big deal. These apostates and evildoers can perform same sex marriages in their so-called churches. Nothing prevents them from practicing their fouled up religion however they want. It just won’t be recognized by the state. That’s the other half of religious freedom these anti-christs don’t seem to understand. The government can’t prevent them from “marrying” sodomites, and they can’t force the government to recognize their sodomite marriages.

it is important that any person that comes into community life of a United Church of Christ congregation be afforded equal pastoral care and equal opportunity to religious services that clergy provide."

Uh they can...any man and woman can be married (assuming they aren't already married) by the clergy. What's not equal about that?

Well if they want to say you have to include same-sex marriages then I want to marry 1 woman...nevermind the fact that I'm already married, but that was by the state and I really want equal rights to marry whomever I choose.

Clergy are free to marry anyone they want. The marriage just may not be legally binding.

Show the judge where the Bible addresses homosexual marriage. Maybe Mormons can make up some passages and use them. But these folks claim to be Christians.

the right/conservative/logical part of society having conceding rational non-religious arguments to prohibit recreational sex fetish marriage to the left; the left is now confident enough to take away the mere religious arguments.

Where their case fails is that they have been just fine with the marriage laws up until the very recent slender sliver of history.

What changed?

moral of the story:
if you have fags, fag friendly, progressives, or any flaming liberals in your organization...

1. do everything you can to oust them from the organization.
2. if they are interviewing, fail them.
3. if you discover your supplier is on the left, take your business elsewhere.

any interaction with these people will only lead to more drama and problems.

Of course the Constitution says nothing that can resolve this conflict. That’s why John Adams (IIRC) said somthing like: “Our Constitution was made for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.”

The Constitution is not a blueprint for our society—which the Left has always pretended it is.
