The Kentucky clerk has gained national-wide attention for her refusal to issue gay couples a marriage license in spite of the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in June that same-sex couples have the right to marry.
Davis, who has lived in Rowan County all her life, has repeatedly cited "God's authority" as her reason for defying the federal courts and denying the marriage licenses.

the donnie’s take on this fiasco puts him in alignment with the likes of Obie From Nairobi...
what could be better tha to illustrate that i similarity??
The phony piece of paper they call a marriage license is for Caesar.
Caesar can enact any law it wishes
The command still stands
Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's
Render unto God that which is God's
The illusion is that Caesar owns anything
Or has any Power at all that is not derivative upon God
Just know that the day you take a stand, everything in your past will be exposed and held to ridicule.
One of the most powerful tools the Left has is just this, the idea that if you have ever failed, you can never take a moral stand. That, and the manifest fear of the trashing you will face.
Just know this also; the day you do take a stand, it is going to cost you, and you will very likely stand alone. Your friends will suddenly have other things to do. Your allies will discover that you are an inconvenient ally. You will face bankruptcy or jail and face it alone.
Thats when you find out who is who.
Fundamental Protestant churches used to be firmly against divorce, too. We have ‘evolved’ . . .
You are the one that looks the fool....and acts the part as well.
Do you know if she’s been born again? Many come to the Lord after making mistakes in their life.
First learn the meaning of hypocrisy then quit assuming that which is unknown.
Or as the Clintons called it, “Nuts and Sluts.”
Agree with your post.
Liberals are shredding her all over the media for her family history.
I’m not trashing her, but she is a soft target in this environment.

She might check to see if she’s got a plank in her eyes. I wonder if she’s always had the same views on gay marriage. If so, she is a very soft target.
I prefer someone like the Rev. Billy Graham taking up moral and spiritual issues for me.
No foul.
Though she did lose her get out of jail free crd somewhere lately.

Spot on.
St. Paul KILLED Christians before becoming one. He ended up writing the vast majority of epistles in the New Testament, and finally gave his life for Christ. I guess he was a hypocrite in your book.
There is only one sin one cannot be forgiven......non-belief. She sounds like a sinner who is trying to follow Christ into a different life. This is what Christianity is all about. As for as being a hypocrite...when all the hypocrites leave The Church you can turn out the lights. The one thing we know is that we will sin again because there has been only one perfect soul!!!
Ah...Catholic perspective. Everyone else is going to hell. You are dismissed.
taxes are defined by the gov’t and therefore belongs to the gov’t. marriage is defined by God and therefore belongs to God.
That’s exactly out of the Alinsky Playbook, “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
That does put conservatives as a huge disadvantage....Liberals have no rules.
denied based on centuries of history, it’s about tearing down the walls of western civilization morals and laws...
This is correct but this needed to be fought, and hard, 10-15 years ago. NO ONE FOUGHT IT. SOCIETY EASED GAY LIFE INTO NORMALCY. THE MEDIA DID THE SOCIALISTS’ BIDDING.
It’s over as a public issue, over.
The next issue is, how are traditional religious people going to be treated? We don’t have the media on our side. There are no slap happy hilarity ensues sitcoms with lovable Christians and Jews following their religions. It’s gay über alles on TV. We lost. Let’s do better on the next issue. Gd bless Donald Trump for having a set of cojones to deal with illegal immigration. He is called racist for even daring to speak on it.
That’s not true. All sin is reprehensible to God and no sin is worse than the other, except for blaspheming the Holy Spirit which is unforgivable.
All other sin is the same, whether gay, or a liar, or thief or adulterer.
Wow . . what an attack on Catholics. Totally uncalled for and misrepresents a lot of born again Catholic Christians. If I didn’t just totally despise our new ‘apology era’, I would include that I think you owe one to Catholics.
Well, read Matthew 19 while you are at it.
Also, doing bad things in your life does not justify your ADDING TO IT.
If I committed adultery, does that mean I am now free to celebrate sodomy in order to escape the charge of being a hypocrite?
I said she converted a few weeks back...but it actually was like a few years ago...senior moments..embrace the moment!
