The legal protections are in the First Amendment. Did the founders expect the court to strike down the First Amendment?

The last paragraph of the article tells the whole story. They feel it is their right to punish people that disagree with them. I fear that many arrests for homophobia will follow, assets seized, lawsuits filed, churches closed and seized by the Feds. Here is the last paragraph:

This month, in anticipation of the marriage ruling, Senator Mike Lee, Republican of Utah, and Representative Raul Labrador, Republican of Idaho, introduced the First Amendment Defense Act, which would push federal law far beyond the existing religious protections. Sure to be strongly opposed by civil rights groups and most Democrats, the bill would prohibit federal officials from penalizing individuals, businesses, charities or schools for actions based on a conviction that marriage is between a man and a woman.

Churches had better look to their Tax Exempt status under this gang of religion fearing Marxists and their lap dog SCOTUS.

This symbolic noisemaking will end up like the abortion stuff the Republican politicians roll out in their state legislatures.

In this gay marriage situtation, religious protection laws will be shot down by corporate elite pressure like Arizona last year (Romney tweeted against it) and Arkansas and Indiana this year.

Otherise the “ALL WISE” judiciary will shoot it down.

Political noisemaking to keep us on the GOP plantation.

Its probably time to build up a movement of folks ready to resist to the point of getting arrested instead of an angry rabble told by media to hate Dems and Liberals, blame them and vote for the “me too” Republicans.

Many on this forum have often wished for the state of California to fall into the ocean in a major earthquake.

It’s ironic that now, they know exactly what it feels like to live under a tyrannical government/court system like we have here. A clear majority voted down gay marriage here in CA and that majority was overruled by a single degenerate judge.

Welcome to the Golden State.

God Have Mercy On America.

I think it is really “John Galt” time.

The unjust laws-—have to be removed NOW-—we have ENOUGH evil, convoluted “rules and regulations” which set up a system to make lawyers and judges wealthy and set for Life. All these rules and regulations are convoluted-—too legalistic-—destroy Truth, Clarity and just HIDE the basic EVIL LAWS (which should be Null and Void by definition).

This corrupt “Justice” “system”-—needs to be made NULL and VOID-—and we NEED to repeal ALL laws since1910-—and comb through ONLY Constitutional laws and streamline them to make SENSIBLE, coherent Law based on Truth and Virtue (Justice).

Pretending male and female are interchangeable is EVIL and Marxist Gender Theory which belongs in the Soviet Union NOT HERE!!!! It is DEHUMANIZING and REMOVES IDENTITY and SANITY from a person—particularly Reason in children who are exposed to such a vile concept and use of the human body.

We have Individual Natural Rights from God-—which can NEVER eliminate REASON and SCIENCE and Objective Truth (God). Let’s get back to the Truth-—and TRUE meaning of “Justice” (the Queen of Virtue) and Natural Law ( “Rights ONLY FROM GOD-—not man or governments and NEVER irrational evil “rights”)

Utter foolishness! The government black robes remove from the Constitution to carve out rights for the rulers over the people’s rights, and the foolish are so dull as to seek the government’s allowance to be exempt. The real problem is the lawlessness of this regime and it’s stooges in black robes! The regime is systematically cancelling the Constitution and folks are begging for exemptions! Please massa can I have anotha?

Start policies that say all couples to be married at this church must be members for a year. membership is defined by 10% tithe, 20 series of biblical marraige courses and vows celebration course prior to marriage.

Love them with the word of God, most will not go through it.

Remember: To live is Christ to die is gain.

marry them, but here are the terms.

Dont marry them....you may go to jail. Oh well bring your Bible. You may get a paid for law degree while in there and some time to reflect.

Either way keep the faith. God is good.

Wait to the corporate types that support this stuff begin asking what church you attend on their employment applications.

We are witnessing the start of state endorsed religion. Any religion that doesn’t follow the government mandates on homosexuality, abortion or climate change will be hounded out of existence. Of course Islam will be exempted.

They are not going to get them because the purpose of these rulings was to destroy Christian Institutions and along with them the Conservative philosophy.

Since a majority of voters on November 4, 2008, in their infinite wisdom, declared, via their votes, that they desired a muslim to rule over them, the Constitution has been regulated to the toiler paper rack. This action has been widely cheered on by the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party, a/k/a, the media. Recently, the Republican Party has joined in the affray.

Conservative Lawmakers and Faith Groups Seek Exemptions After Same-Sex Ruling

Why seek an EXEMPTION? Both the Obie Administration and SCOTUS have clearly displayed their disdain for the RULE OF LAW. It is way past time that the citizens of America embrace the new found lawlessness and ignore these pontification from SCROTUS.

Will someone please show me where the enumerated power is listed in the US Constitution that gives the FEDS the right to define - let alone regulate - marriage? Anyone?
