This Same-Sex Couple Filmed Themselves Getting Denied A Marriage License - GMDino - 07-09-2015 Long way to go. Well not if people did the job they were hired to do. This character should quit and pray to find a job that he can enforce his religion on to his customers. I wonder how many divorced people he denied second marriage licences to? Or couples who had a child out of wedlock?!?! The horror! ![]() http://uproxx.com/webculture/2015/07/this-same-sex-couple-filmed-themselves-getting-denied-for-a-marriage-license/ Quote:In the wake of the Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality, once the parties died down and we cleaned the glitter and streamers up off the ground, one point remained clear: While this was a historic ruling and we as a country have come far, we still have so far to go. RE: This Same-Sex Couple Filmed Themselves Getting Denied A Marriage License - CKwi88 - 07-09-2015 Why am I not surprised that it's in KY? RE: This Same-Sex Couple Filmed Themselves Getting Denied A Marriage License - StLucieBengal - 07-09-2015 Well they should be following the law. But they are able to behave anyway they see fit. Just as the gay couples are able to sue. Are they forced to get their license in that county or can they go to any? Why waste the time to sue if they can drive 15 minutes down the road and get their government marriage.

They are NOT able to behave how they see fit. They can quit if the job is so bad to their moral code. then drive 15 minutes away and get another one. ![]() RE: This Same-Sex Couple Filmed Themselves Getting Denied A Marriage License - michaelsean - 07-09-2015 He's not doing his job so fire him.

You'd think so, but he's already done the same thing at least four times...and he's still at his job.

If you are a civil servant your job is you acting as a representative of the government agency with which you are employed. Your personal prejudices cannot be used in this manner. I'm not saying that no accommodations should be made for religious beliefs, but you'd have a difficult time showing me that there was anything prohibiting you from doing your job by issuing a government marriage license to a same-sex couple within Christian doctrine. Since by issuing the license you, personally, are not condoning the act and are only acting on behalf of the governmental organization you are representing there is no argument that you are being forced to go against your religious beliefs.

Hmm, this reminds me of the time a Muslim who worked at Arby's refused to give a guy a ham sandwich because it went against his religion and you were all like "Hey, that customer can just drive to a different town with a different Arby's!"
