Government: Conduct Same-Sex Wedding or Go to Jail - So... what do all those folks who claimed that the government would NEVER force clergy to perform same-sex marriages have to say about this case?

Government: Conduct Same-Sex Wedding or Go to Jail

Comments

  1. It was subject to the law because the wedding chapel was a for profit company. There is an exemption for religious organizations. I have never seen a Western government require a church to marry gay people, divorced people or indeed any people (as some denominations do not have wedding ceremonies). Religions have exemptions for these requirements, but not for profit enterprises. Although the Hobby Lobby decision in the US may change that.
