The illegitimate dictate of the Supreme Court is of greatest concern. Such action can not be tolerated.

I agree that this action cannot be tolerated. The question is: what can be done? The imprisonment of Kim Davis, unlike that of Rosa Parks, is effectively indefinite. She will be held in prison until such time as she recants, resigns the office, or is removed by the legislature of Kentucky or the voters. Rosa Parks was punished for a set period for her violation of public accommodation law that mandated racial segregation. The civil rights movement had an effective action plan: boycotting the Montgomery public transit system and downtown merchants. It did not succeed in its immediate goals, but it helped trigger a civil rights revolution that in due course toppled state laws mandating segregation, culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and later statutes. What is the long term strategy of conservative Christians? Prayer is advisable and even mandatory, but faith without works is dead.
