Why do none these of perverts ever go to a mosque or a Muslim business and try to force them to cater to their perversion? Yes, that's a rhetorical question. I wish I knew a way to put someone up to it, but I don't know any sodomites anyway, and if I did, I already know that the cowardly perverts would never it anyway.

Here’s the catch. They are probably on shaky legal grounds and rock-solid moral grounds. And rock-solid constitutional grounds.
This is what happens when your laws are no longer in harmony with natural law, with moral law, or with the constitution itself.
This is what happens when you elect lawless men into high office.
They will say that its a business and not a church. After they beat down this rampart, then they will move on to the church itself. Pastors in Canada, Germany, and Sweden have already been prosecuted for opposing homosexuality. This is not over until people awaken and start to stand up, instead of leaving these small businessmen to face bankrupting legal fights alone.

Just one caveat: “Marryin’ Sam” and “Marryin’ Samantha” sell a Christian ceremony in a for-profit “chapel”.
Johann Tetzel would be very pleased.

So what if a Protestant couple man and woman go to a Catholic Priest, can he NOT do the wedding because they would need to be baptized members of his church. Why don’t pastors just do weddings for their parishners, and if the same sex people aren’t accepted into membership as parishners, then take that to the SUPREMES>

The City Officials should be tried and incarcerated for intentionally violating the First Amendment.

Is the Hitching Post Wedding Chapel a real church or just a business?
The website is called http://hitchingpostweddings.com which would suggest it is not actually a church, there is no mention of regular worship services.

I don’t even know anyone in Idaho, period.

No, they should be hung: storm city hall, drag them to the first tree and string them up. Same for the lunatic(s) that run Houston and a dozen other cities.
The time for playing nice is over. It's time for FORCEFUL action.

Thats the catch. They are a wedding chapel, doing this as a business. They are not a church. They are on the same legal ground as the baker who refuses to bake a wedding cake for a same-sex wedding.
Morally, they are in the right. And until recently, that would have been enough, no one would imagine forcing someone to violate his conscience to perform a same-sex wedding if they were morally opposed. But that was then, and this is now.

They can say anything they want. What they can not do is compel an ordained Pastor to participate in a secular farce.

Catholicism recognizes most Protestant baptisms; that's not the issue. But, yes, only members in good standing and compliant with church requirements will be married.
In the article, the two ministers don't seem to have any kind of congregation or regular meetings; it is just a wedding chapel business in a resort town.
