(on the jailing of Kim Davis)

It is simply not true that her religious freedom must be set aside if she offends or inconveniences someone. Accommodations can be made for all. What this judge has said is that a true Christian cannot hold this sort of job - which is anathema to the Constitution and the Founding Fathers intent too, I might add.

I think that, like the gay cakes and flowers and all, this is really going to backfire on gay advocates. They have always claimed to be the "tolerant" ones, but death threats and jail time do not sound very "tolerant" to me. I think that is why you are seeing, on this page, a lot of reluctance on gay advocates to celebrate this - and this to their credit. They have always claimed their movement is not heavy-handed, that is wasn't about forcing people to affirm their beliefs, which is laughable just with the florist in Washington case, and now even they are getting creeped out by this.

It's not good for gays and not good for America.

"They are beliefs. They have nothing to do with the law. "

What you keep forgetting is that the law includes religious freedoms, which are clearly based on religious beliefs. Remember the (Muslim) foot baths? :-)

"No matter how sincerely she holds them it doesn't give her the right to force them on those who DON'T follow them"

She never forced her beliefs on anyone. The gays who want to marry are free to believe in Baal if they want to.

But, speaking of force, she was forced into jail. Doesn't that creep you out the least?!? Really?!? The main gay advocate players are not on this page tonight for that very reason. They have finally been creeped out - they don't want to have to argue that there is no Gaystapo now that someone has been jailed.

"Your rant about the Gaystapo was cute, but ultimately irrelevant to the issue here."

Not at all. It shows the lengths to which you folks will go to force your beliefs on us. All in the name of "tolerance." Pity you are one of the very few to recognize this.
