Christianity is being criminalized in the United States. No, I am not talking about the kind of Christianity that is so prevalent in America today where “Christians” just ignore what the Bible says and do whatever they wanted to do in the first place anyway. Rather, I am talking about the kind of faith that Kim Davis has demonstrated. Christians all over this country are being put into positions where they must choose to either submit to the “new morality” or potentially lose their jobs. For Kim Davis, deciding to take a stand meant that she was thrown into prison. The radical judge that threw her into prison has said that she will stay there until she is willing to change her mind.
The pace of which our nation is circling the toilet is absolutely breathtaking. Just eleven years ago, a state constitutional amendment that banned gay marriage in Kentucky received support from 75 percent of the voters.

I think the problem could be fixed if the laws covering this kind of thing could be amended to permit "Conscientious Objectors" to simply "Delegate" tasks they feel infringes their religious rights. The tasks could be delegated to assistants, deputies and the like and the impression of the official seal on a document could easily substitute symbols for signatures.
ReplyDeleteI think there are at least 9 states that have done something similar.
I never personally believed the Fed should have jumped this shark in the first place because (A) There isn't a word about same sex marriage in the Constitution and I don't think Kentucky has any laws addressing it either so in all reality I don't believe Mrs. Davis ever broke any laws because ... there are no laws addressing the issues on the books.
Political prisoner? That's what I think.
Law Breaker? How can anyone break a law when there is no law to be broken?
Something went fishy if you ask me.
