If churches don't have to marry black and white couples, why should they have to marry gay ones? Lawsuits will likely get thrown out or lose.

Exactly, liberals never, ever stop attacking all things traditional, free speech, personal accountability and responsibility, and attacking males and whites and trying to change the US demographics etc.

Liberal/progressives never shut up and never stop. But conservatives are suppose to shut up and just give up lol? You can't make this stuff up.

It remains to be seen how long it will take for them to get the media/hollywood on board with really going after religious places. I think it will take a little while but eventually, the anti-religious left will back the movement. Could be 5 years, 10, or even longer. But it will happen sooner or later.

1A protects the people from religion as well as protecting religion from the government. Government cannot force religion to do anything as there is no national religion. It's enumerated.

I'd be really curious to know just how many of the liberal same sex marriage supporter's here are actually gay? Or are the ones continually beating their chest about the victory merely bandwagon jumpers. Because of all my gay friends (and yes I have several) none of them are as poor a winner's as the group here. They have much more class........ They know that we will remain friends, and understand that I merely think that both sides of the issue have justifiable concerns...

Can we at last coexist? If you're gay, please don't expect someone with Christian beliefs to officiate your wedding. Don't go after the Catholic Church trying to force them to marry you under the banner of bigotry. Please, no more threads on how unaffordable healthcare is......you all supported the obamacare lie, live with it.
Nope.

We're just getting started!

How does issuing a marriage license to all impact your religious freedom.

The issue is over and you ask why it doesn't go away and then states like TX come up with things like this, they can't accept the decision.

Well not allowing women and blacks the right to vote was traditional until it was struck down in the courts.

You need to stay focused, the issue is equal treatment of individuals under the law.
