The only way that churches will escape any attacks will be to quit the “tax-exempt” status and the churches will be free to preach against the horrible sin of “same-sex marriage.”

No. It's a Constitutional Right now. They can sue for denial of civil rights. It's not about tax-exemption.

The only solution is for churches to announce they no longer perform marriage ceremonies.

It won’t be that easy. Then the church will be treated like any other business and fined or shut down for “discrimination.” We will soon be like China where there is an official church that teaches the party line and illegal, underground churches. Anyone involved in an “illegal” church here in the Peoples’ Republic of Amerika will lose their jobs even in most private companies since many businesses are run by corporate socialists. No one in a soon to be illegal church will be alowed to be in the military, the civil service, etc.

No, they won’t. Tax exempt status will not allow them to engage in “hate speech” against a protected minority.

Call marriage between one man and one woman “Holy Matrimony” and you just turned gay marriage into what it was in the first place, a civil union.

They only cared about the word marriage. Nothing more, nothing less. The left only cares about words and labels, or is no one paying attention?

This ruling as well as yesterday’s only meant that the left is winning the war on words, yet we will not take action.
