When she was hired, this was not a requirement. The government is required to make accommodations for religious convictions. They brought this on her. She did not take a job and then change the requirements. They did. This is wrong to make her choose between her job and her religious convictions. To force her would be the government choosing one believe favorable over another. Isn’t that the very thing the homos claimed to be against? They should make accommodation for people’s conscience. People could avoid the draft by being objectors. So let them avoid issuing these licenses. They should not lose their employment over it. Even if the evil favoring government wants to make it a condition of future hires, it is fundamentally WRONG to lay this on someone who was hired prior to this evil ruling.

"When she was hired, this was not a requirement."

I believe Ms. Davis holds an elected office, and as such has sworn an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States. As wrong as the gay marriage decision was, I fear Ms. Davis's only recourse will be to resign.

Sorry you are incorrect. Job requirements change it happens every day in all jobs. Her religious beliefs do not allow her not to do her Job. The religious exemption is nonsense for many reasons but let’s just take one. She refuses to issue any licenses at all since the ruling so it’s just nonsense.

She will not win her case. Ones religious freedom is not infringed by job requirements. If her religion compels her not to perform her job then she needs to find other employment.

Legally this is pretty open and shut, and she won’t win.
