The First Amendment *is* the LAW OF THE LAND. The law that there shall be no religious tests is the law of the land. The constitution of Kentucky is the law of the land. The person who says that homosexual marriage is a right is violating the law of the land.
And far above all that is GOD’s law!
What about all those laws? Which laws supersede?
And where pray tell does the authority to overrule this lady’s conscience come from? From the will of the people? From God? From moral right?
What is law, exactly, anyway? THINK!
The US is a secular republic, and you don’t get to operate as a public employee or even private business owner in violation of civil rights, including public accommodations, laws on the basis of religious objections. Thus also you can’t legally refuse to serve Jews in your pizzeria or issue a mixed Jewish/Christian or Muslim couple a marriage license because you have a religious belief that “the Jews” killed Christ or that Allah and the Prophet forbid it. You want to be able legally to refuse such things or refuse homosexual couples marriage licenses? Join the clergy. Civil rights law applies to a lesser extent in houses of worship. But a pizzeria or a clerk’s office isn’t a church, a mosque, or a synagogue.
