Please note: I inserted the [Lutheran] where appropriate to avoid confusion.

Get real. The vast majority of gays are not in any way shape or form religious people. These types of demands on the clergy are done purely out of spite.

If I’m understanding this correctly, it’s just for the state church, not non-state churches and other non-state religious institutions(I’m sure it’s not for the mosques).

“What’s the big deal about letting to gays marry?” we are asked. Well, this is exactly what they have in mind. There is no end to what they’ll demand next.

I predicted this would happen. This will spread ... coming soon to a church near you.

"Denmark's church minister ... "

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why in this country we have the First Amendmen.

It isn't clear from the article that this applies only to the "state religion". Do you know of any more on this issue?

What is clear is that Europe is so far Left as to not even be recognizable to Americans:

Stig Elling, a travel industry millionaire and former Right-wing politician, said he planned to marry his partner of 28 years next week.

Write all of the laws you like.

It’s “my” building, and you’re not coming in.
How do you propose to force me to perform the ceremony?

The Catholic Church isn’t perfect, but it is hard to maintain that Lutheranism is the true faith with this silliness (on top of female ministers and other progressive, post-Christian nonsense).

it must be noted that the Danish “Lutheran” state church is not reflective of the conservative values in the conservative Lutheran churches in the US (the ELCA isn’t one of these....)

Denmark is a welfare state. 70% of the people live off the other 30%. The earners are tax poor and the loafers are fat dumb and unhappy. The government in Denmark is a hybrid socialist state with fascist tendencies to dictate how everyone eats, breaths, farts and spits. It’s no wonder that this has occurred. It will happen elsewhere, especially where the Church has kissed the states secular behind and kowtows to their dictates.
