Religious Exemptions, or Not???
Do religious exemptions apply to individuals who provide supplies or services for weddings? No, the exemptions only apply to those who officiate marriages. For example, florists, photographers, and caterers, etc. aren't allowed to refuse service based on conscience. If these people have concerns, I'd suggest for them to support their churches and support their fellow members and guests with their issues.... [Not to say we should pressure anyone to change.--It doesn't work.] And otherwise, I believe we should show some compassion for gay couples and not object to their efforts at making stable homes together. *** Can conservative Christians support religious exemptions while at the same time showing support for gay marriage? Yes, I believe it's possible.... [People can read more in my blogs if they wish to know more.] *** If people think I'm mistaken, they're welcome to give me their feedback. But I believe I've gone over the issues quite thoroughly.
