In the U.S. Kim Davis has a right to be against Gay Marriage. There will always be people against Gay marriage and all sorts of things.
However, she does not have the right in her job to discriminate against people who are gay who want marriage licenses.
How does the U.S. government deal with this conundrum?
People have a right to believe whatever they believe in. Therefore, should Christians be banned for running for office if they cannot fulfill those duties when they go against their conscience?
It is sort of like this: Imagine a person joining the army who didn't believe in killing people. What if a situation arose and that person wouldn't kill if they had to?
Would they be put in prison the rest of their lives? Maybe.
Kim Davis in a way is in this same position.
If she needs the money to support her and her husband she doesn't want to quit that job because she and her husband need the money. So, should she be forced out of this job because she is a Christian?
This is the quandary the Pope is addressing when he says that Kim Davis shouldn't have to condone Gay marriage licenses.
Which supersedes which?
Legally, the government supersedes everything. But, in private one's religious or spiritual beliefs supersede everything.
So, in the end does one die for their religious beliefs?
Millions have down through the ages.
So, what will the Congress and the Courts say about this in the short or long run?
Does freedom religion have an equal footing to the right to get married if you are gay?
And if it does then what?
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
