Great White Snark,

Moore seems determined to go down in flames.

Apparently that same attorney general refused to advise probate judges as to whether the state’s chief justice or the federal Supreme Court has the final say in the matter. They should consult their own attorneys

Here’s something I don’t understand: Why do clerks in some counties in the states where the SSM ban has been struck down keep refusing to issue licenses based on their religion? As I’m sure you’re aware, it has happened in places Florida, Montana, and now Alabama (and probably others I’m not aware of).

How does your religion exempt you? You’re not a priest, or rabbi, or an imam or whatever. No one is asking you to perform a religious ceremony. So I’m Muslim and alcohol is forbidden to us. I don’t drink. Does that mean if I work in an office that provides liquor licenses I can refuse to issue them based on my beliefs?

Seriously, WTF? If your job is going to require that you do something that’s against your religion, then maybe it’s time for you to find a different job, FFS.

I can hear it now, “But, but, it wasn’t legal before, so I didn’t have to do it!” Yeah? Well it’s legal now—things change. If you’re a city or county clerk, then you work for a secular institution that isn’t bound by your religion or anyone else’s.

Get a job at a private company that shares your convictions, get a job with a religious organization that matches your beliefs, but DO NOT try to make the operation of local, state, or federal government subject to your (or anyone else’s) religious restrictions.

Gah! Do people really want to go there in a country where we have so many different religions? It’s stupid. Mixing religion & secular law is just… NO.

There is the sacrament of Holy Matrimony and there is the civil institution of marriage. They used to be isentical, but they are not in our society.

Do not ask these morans to grasp that subtlety.

I think it’s just about time that Judge Roy Moore get another judicial review due to his blatant disregard to a direct order from the United States Supreme Court. The last time he violated the US Constitution in a fit of religious bigotry , he got removed from office. I think it is really high time that he not only get removed yet again, but with his habitual violation of federal law, things need to go a step further and he be disbarred, and forbidden to hold any judiciary office ever again.

Y’all are not from around here, are ya? Alabama’s sacred constitution is the oldest now operating in the world. It has 856 amendments, and over 340,000 words. If a town across the state wants to build a sewage treatment plant, they need for me to vote approval.

Keeping the blacks down came at a price, but Alabama gladly paid it.

keep refusing to issue licenses based on their religion

All things aside, no matter how good their job performance might have been before that, they’re thereby shown to be unreliable workers and should be simply fired.
