Re: Religious Group Files a Lawsuit Against North Carolina's Gay Marriage Ban
Then the lawsuit brought by the Church should have made a claim about being able to perform a man-woman Religious Marriage without a Civil License being issues. That would be a valid claim that the law is infringing on their ability to perform a religious ceremony without government intervention.
However the law does not prevent them from performing a Religious Marriage for a same-sex couple so the law in fact does not limit their ability to perform that ceremony.

No, telling a church they cant do something that is purely religious inside their church is against the First Ammendment.
