Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays[W:297]

Re: Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays

You are aware that you, with very few exceptions, have to be a legal adult to enter into a legal contract like marriage, right?

You came into this thread way too late. I've already squashed the "consenting adult" meme.
 
Re: Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays

And you bring the pedos into the schools for them to learn the practical application of homosexuality.

The churches are already overrun with pedos, you want to leave them there?
 
Re: Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays

If they were happy and he treated them well, nope. Why should it?

...when they were 12?

It's no meme, it's reality. I guess you aren't interested in reality.

12 year olds cannot enter into any kind of legal contract.

Realty is that gays couldn't marry. Now they can.
How long until 12 year olds can get married?

...yet.

I don't know. You let us know when it actually happens. Until then, it's irrelevant.

The path to making that happen has already been cut. You can thank the gays for blazing the trail for them.

You keep using that word when you have no idea what it's meaning is.
 
Re: Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays

them not handing someone a marriage license does not prohibit that. the government office will have to find someone that will hand it to them.

That's not how it works. Your "rights" can't be dependent on someone else willing to do what you have a right not to do. Give me a break. What you're saying is if everyone in that office religiously objects to SSM that one of them will have to have their "right" stripped and hand them a license. I can't see how that works...

You are 100% wrong. the first amendment is their specifically to protect peoples religious views and their religious reason.
you evidently haven't read the 1st amendment.

The clerk can believe anything he or she wants. But as an agent of the state, he cannot deny a license on the basis of any religious test. If he can deny a license to a SS couple, he can deny it to Jews or Muslims or atheists, or black/white couples, whatever religious test he or she decides in his or her own mind is the deciding factor. It's impossible for that to withstand the laugh out loud court test.

it isn't arbitrary religious reasons at all.

Arbitrary in the sense that it's not in any basis in law, but merely whatever the person handing out licenses decides the qualification to be. Why not black/white couples, if she believes god disapproves of mixed race pairings? Why can't she ask everyone if they accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and if "no" then no license? All she has to believe is god doesn't bless any union except of Christians, born again.
 
Re: Texas AG Says Workers Can Refuse Marriage Licenses to Gays

Because someone has to enforce the contract when a party breaks from their agreement or their is a dispute over whether the contract is enforceable. The courts are part of the government, by the way. And the police (also part of the government), help to enforce the court's decision. Oh, and the legislature has to be involved to ensure that certain types of contracts (one for child labor, for example) are void on their face.

You can enter a private contract without government intervention. I didnt ask the government for permission from the ****ty ****ing garbage giant bureaucracy embarrassment known as the federal government to get my home loan. I asked a bank. Why cant two people sign a marriage contract with an attorney without ****head bureaucrats getting in the ****ing way? Then if you get a divorce it can also be through an attorney, negotiating the divorce settlement. THEN if there are issues you can go to civil court. The ****tards never get involved until its a last resort.

****.

posting lies as if they are truths wont fool anybody honest and educated.

there is not one single argument based on rights and legality that is based soley on equal rights for gays that lends itself to the lies you speak off . . . not one . .

disagree?
name these facts, show us the legality and thats its based on arguments solely for equal rights for gays. We'd love to read them lol

So, you'd be perfectly fine with your 11 year old son getting buggered by some 50 year old man?
That's great. I'm going to get a few 12 year old Asian girls imported to be my wives.
An 18 year old is a teenager and able to marry who he likes. Where you came up with the idea I said 11 is beyond me. If you thought you would shock me by your statement you did not. All you did was cause me to pity you and feel sorry for you.

Educated does not mean intelligent. And, all you need to do for an intelligent argument is to read my posts in this thread.
They aren't put up here like a word salad like some people's posts.

The state and government cannot force someone to violate their religious beliefs. the SCOTUS has ruled on this constantly.
yes that is exactly it. their rights will be stripped and the government cannot do that.
of course you can't see how it works because you don't think religious protections are a constitutional guarantee. you only believe what you want to believe.


The clerk can believe anything he or she wants. But as an agent of the state, he cannot deny a license on the basis of any religious test. If he can deny a license to a SS couple, he can deny it to Jews or Muslims or atheists, or black/white couples, whatever religious test he or she decides in his or her own mind is the deciding factor. It's impossible for that to withstand the laugh out loud court test.

if it is a violation of their religious beliefs the government cannot force them. to do so would be a religious discrimination.

arbitrary meaning you have to just assume they didn't believe that way to begin with.
if they firmly believe that marriage is between a man and a women the government cannot force them to
violate their religious beliefs. it is constitutionally protected.

Translation: you cant refer to any laws, rights or arguments based on legality that support the lies you claim.

facts remains there are ZERO arguments based on legality that can be used to support the lies you claim that are solely based on equal rights for gays. Let us know when that changes. lol thanks
facts win again

Damn, I ought to get a cushy government job and then tell them my religious forbids me to go to work. I still want to get paid, of course, I just don't want to actually do anything. They can't deny me because it's discrimination against my religion!

Your pity is wasted. I am above you in every conceivable sense.
Should your child have children of his own, you should hope that sex at puberty is not legalized. Otherwise, he'll be serviced by strange men in school before he could realize that he doesn't like it.
Or, maybe you find that normal as well. I mean, they thought gay marriage wouldn't happen too. And, look at where we are now.

you actually have to prove it. I don't know any recognized religion that practices that.
