[quote]Not all your rights but if your beliefs are in direct violation of federal law, [/quote] No it doesn't work like that. None of your rights can be violated. [quote]like Rastafarians smoking marijuana, you can't just claim to be immune to the law because of your religion.[/quote] They have no religious basis. [quote] Her job is to give out licenses to couples who are eligible for marriage. Gay and straight couples now fit that criteria now. If she denies a license for an eligible couple, she can be laid off as she is not doing the job she was appointed. Because she is a government worker she has to uphold the laws related to her work. Otherwise what she does is technically unlawful. [/quote] Since we are speaking in technicalities now, it's against her religion to issue those licenses to gays. And you are technically infringing on her right to practice her religion by upholding her faith. [quote]Freedom of religion protects you from not being allowed to worship or announce your faith, It does not allow you to deny others unlawfully because your religions morals are against it. [/quote] To force someone to do something against their religion and punish them otherwise is in violation of their rights. The Law's enforcement is unconstitutional. [quote]Nobody is stopping her from practicing her religion. If anything she is by working for an agency that upholds things against her morals. She should have issue with the government not the people wanting a legal marriage license.[/quote] The agency didn't present that issue until the Supreme Court made the Law. And she's not on the offensive, she's defending her stance.
