Should government let all churches marry homosexuals couples or not? What do you think?
That decision is already made and the answer is absolutely not , that would be against established
law here in the USA.

They can refuse service from me for any reason. But then again, I am not gay, so I am not covered by the same laws.

Yes, you are covered under the same laws. That's where that whole equal protection thing that you seem to dislike comes into play.

You do understand the difference between "let" and "force" right?

The government can "let" churches do pretty much whatever churches want to do.
They cannot force churches to marry homosexual couples, nor should they.
