I see you’ve abandoned your original argument (since you lost it) and have now resorted to rhetorical questions.

Look at it this way. Lets take ALL the religious aspects of this matter off the table. Leave her moral convictions alone for a moment.

Was the SCOTUS correct in their ruling?

Was Mrs. Davis correct in following Kentucky law?

So WHY are you kicking her to the curb?

I’ve abandoned nothing.

Was the SCOTUS correct in their ruling? - No. Should have been 9-0 the other way.

Was Mrs. Davis correct in following Kentucky law? - No. The law of Kentucky has become null and void. There is no law there for her to follow.

So WHY are you kicking her to the curb? - Because this Baptist doesn’t like government officials imposing their religious views on me and others contrary to the law.

County clerks issue things based on the LAW, not their convictions. They are not, in any way, giving their personal approval to anything by issuing a license. They merely confirm that X conforms with the law. Period. Nothing else.

And that line of reasoning is what Christians SHOULD have done with the equally wrong/reprehensible Roe V. Wade - we should have fought tooth and nail to preserve our states rights to make the law on that issue. Instead, we were cowards and just let the Supreme Court essentially make State law and illegally take on a power they didn’t have. So now we continue down this horrible slope started way back in 1973.
