By choosing to privilege a novel constitutional right over the religious liberty interests explicitly protected in the First Amendment, and by doing so undemocratically, the Court has created a problem that only it can fix. Until then, Obergefell will continue to have “ruinous consequences for religious liberty.” 576 U. S., at 734 (THOMAS, J., dissenting).

Does "Thomas, J." mean Justice Clarence Thomas?

Three marriages...actually 4...2 children born out of wedlock...Not my place to condemn...but not a very good example of "Saint Kim".

Her mother held the job for 37 years and was Kim's boss for 27 years.

Both are Dems through and through.

I think her original intention was 15 minutes...she never expected a whole hour.

Sometimes the only way to win the game is to refuse to play. The best time to do that is when the game is rigged by evil people. You should have the right to choose when you fight battles and to structure the battlefield so you will win. The perverts currently control the legal battlefield.

See my past replies on this issue. You can tactically flee overwhelming odds to continue that battles on another hill against the same foe, but other times you may fight with the expectation of winning, if not certain, while in other scenarios there is not choice, you either confess Jesus is Lord because He and face the lions is or you deny this, confess the Great Commie Leader is divine and lose your soul.

You either refuse to shoot unarmed Jews (or peaceful American law-abiding citizens) by the command of the Great Woke Leader and be shot or do what it right.

You either refuse to be complicit in celebrating an immoral and illegal wedding when asked and face the wrath of proxy servants of the devil or refuse to and win.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12)
The devil, as the original Leftist (and thus employed the victim entitlement mentality from the beginning of his seductions) who comes to "steal, and to kill, and to destroy" (John 10:10) in his lust for power and glory, works to pervert all that reflects God's wisdom and thereby give honor to Him, and thus seeks all to salute the flag of Sodom, from the womb (if he does not snuff out innocent life there) to the grave.

And in the future I expect more business to require employees to signify that they affirm homosexual unions, as team players in an army of degradation.

In the case of Davis, this was the first time I know of in refusing to sign off on this license of perversion at issue, and she must have hopefully presumed she could prevail, but could not as yet, yet aside from lack of wisdom, the only real fault here may be that she loved her job too much, and< I think that href="http://peacebyjesus.net/womenpastors.html"> in principal, a position of such authority is one a women should normally not seek to be in.

Perhaps this could be appealed to the SCOTUS, however, having sanctified the homosexual bed, they find it difficult to clearly side with those who refuse to make it, as seen in their restrained judgment in the case of Masterpiece bakery, which refusal to be complicit in celebrating an immoral and illegal wedding (at the time, as per state constitution) should have been a slam-dunk case of vindication.

However, slippery-slope secular conservatives can be like those who let Hilters gobble of people and power under the premise that there are more important battles to win.

When they came for the unborn and defenders of them, I said nothing because I saw this as a religious issue not worth fighting for.

When they came for traditional marriage/anti-LGBTQ+ supporters, I said nothing because I did not see how that affected me as a conservative SWM (despite its cost$).

When they came for the evangelicals and all social conservatives, I said nothing because I was only a agnostic fiscal conservative who opposed excessive government spending and regulation.

When they came for all who would not pledge their supreme allegiance and life and fortune to a Leftist government upon whom all are to depend, then there was hardly anyone one left to speak for me.

And which is consistent with her conversion, which you reject siding with sodomites.

Once again, you continue in your diatribe against a women who became a Christian and dared oppose the homosexual agenda, whom you effectively side with in throwing this women under the bus due her past life. Which thus impugns the atonement and resurrection of Christ, since that is what changed my life and the likes of her, which past life you dredge up in discrediting the noble stand against the homosexual machine, which you have only acted as supporter of. Unless you have evidence of her now being an adulterous Democrat than your defamation of her is simply libelous.

And you refuse to answer the charges against your continual degradation of this political martyr in this regard.

Your position goes beyond Kim Davis, for how many other Christian conservatives will you shoot under the premise that a past life negates any dramatic changes and stands for the better afterward?

What is this? Finally an actual response to reproof of your liberal defamation? Yet which response is that of scorn of Christian conversion, which profound basic changes in heart and life are well attested to, even today, and without which Christianity America would not have existed and prevailed.

And which conversion not discredited due to the false conversions or sad examples declension from faith (which examples is likely your desperate recourse). Thus may we assume that you are an atheist who for some reason enjoys being on this officially pro-God (of the Bible) forum? Answer? Or do are you just here to discredit Christians?

Wait a minute....she’s the one who was doing the judging...so you have things twisted to fit your narrative.

I have no narrative. I simply pointed out your judgmental statement.

You judged her without knowing squat about her life. What difference does it make that she was married 3 times? Maybe her first two husbands turned out to be abusers. You don't know and I don't know.

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. (Matthew 7:2)

Based upon his judgment, in which what one did before conversion negates any moral stand such makes after subsequent years manifest conversion, and his scornful dismissal of evangelical conversion itself, the scorner has effectively thrown thrown every convert under the bus, and thereby Christ and his apostles themselves, and has only adopted the recourse of liberals in this.

Not that the man (?) is a liberal overall, which gender is only what I can surmise since he puts nothing on his home page.

May God grant all “repentance to the acknowledging of the truth.” (2 Timothy 2:25)

I am 72 now, and probably will not live long enough to see America's fate play out -- I may only get to witness further decline. But I pray that my daughter gets to see the reversal and return to the virtues and principles of the Founders, who knew and clearly stated that our Constitutional Republic required that its people be "moral and religious" (in the words of John Adams). God willing, this can be done.

71 here, and God is willing, but while seeking to fulfill "have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them" (Ephesians 5:11) and to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints," (Jude 3) rather than being focused on saving Babylon, I and the body of Christ in the US needs to have more of the mentality of the 1st century church, which were overall under a civil gov. with many leaders that would make ours look mild.

But the church was focused on being a distinctive holy nation, calling souls to Come out of her [Babylon], my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities." (Revelation 18:4-5)

https://marriagelicense.io/us/kentucky
https://woodford.countyclerk.us/additional-information/marriage-license/
Where are marriage licenses issued?
The parties may go to any county in Kentucky to get a marriage license if both are 18 years of age or older. Marriage licenses may be used in any Kentucky county and cannot be used anywhere but in Kentucky.
https://www.jeffersoncountyclerk.org/marriage-license-frequently-asked-questions/


So, looking at the adjacent counties and the distance from the county seat of Rowan County:
The Lewis County Clerk’s office is 37 miles away. The Carter County Clerk’s office is 33 miles away. The Fleming County Clerk’s office is 27 miles away. The Elliott County Clerk’s office is 25 miles away. The Morgan County Clerk’s office is 25 miles away. The Meniffee County Clerk’s office is 25 miles away. The Bath County Clerk’s office is 21 miles away.
The only damages it seems they should have been awarded were the cost of gas, a cab fair, etc. for making the round trip to the next county clerk’s office. That is the only delay she could have caused them. Even assuming the absolute worst about her and her behavior, there were no more damages than having the inconvenience of going to another clerk’s office relatively close by. The claim they suffered $100,000 of damages by not being able to get the license at her particular office with her signature is bizarre. Again, even assuming the absolute worst about her behavior for the sake of argument, it is difficult to fathom how her behavior could have caused them to go through all of this or suffer such enormous “damages.” Did her counsel not bring this up during the hearing with the judge?

It’s not about anything but destroying those who do not comply to their childish, woke demands.

It' is a form of "economic sanctions" for offending the USS (United States of Sodom) since SCOTUS (5/4) criminalized refusal to be complicit in sanctioning homosexual marriage.
