You can splash America’s secrets all over your email, you can kill cops, you can encourage killing cops, but you cannot be a Christian.

Obama govt attorneys refuse to follow a federal judge’s orders regarding immigration and they are not in jail.

A Christian has been jailed in America for being a Christian!

Someone called this our Rosa Parks moment. I think it may well turn out to be just that.

There is only “marriage”. “Gay marriage” is an oxymoron.

Leviathan is asking Clerk Davis to do something she finds impossible to do. It is as if they asked her to levitate from her chair.

Good job SCOTUS! You really screwed the pooch.

This has already been posted several times today from various sources. Including the thread just below this one. I don’t think we need yet another one repeating the same information.

Hopefully the pulpits in her county should raise the hew and cry and have protesters outside of that court house every day.

I think the Governor can pardon her.

Rather than allow this get so far out of hand, perhaps she should’ve alerted the media to what was going on and then quit her job, using the exposure she would get from the situation to show her dedication to Christ and the gospel, which would be a super powerful testimony to believers and unbelievers alike.

Actually, that would have done nothing.

Hopefully this will cause an awakening in the US to what is really at stake.

I agree. Resigning her job would have accomplished nothing.

She has stood for the principle of religious freedom.

A Federal Judge put her in jail. I don’t think a governor can touch that.

I could be wrong, let’s ask a lawyer.

In any case, this lady could not issue marriage licenses. The KY law on this has yet to be written.

This will be a good precedent when some Muslim complains that she must wear a burka when selling clothing, or cannot work a supermarket aisle that has haram food, or work a checkout where customers bring alcohol or bacon.

The government is making the case where your religion does not count if following it contradicts government demands. Given the number of religions and the variety of proscribed, forbidden, or mandatory behaviour this could get interesting.

Hmm there was a change in the naturalization laws recently that said you no longer had to pledge to military service if you had religious objections, clearly aimed at Muslim immigrants but it has “penumbras” into this case as well, maybe.

Gay marriage trumps the 1st Amendment.

We've known for a long time that this day was coming.
