"To all of my friends and family who honestly believe that yesterday's Supreme Court ruling somehow infringes on your religious freedom, I have one word for you: Bacon.
I'm serious. BACON.
Bacon is legal in the United States, right? "Of course it is," you say. "What's your point?" Well, bacon is legal in the United States, even though most Jewish people believe it to be a sin. Does your love of bacon infringe on their religious freedoms in any way? Should it be illegal for you to purchase bacon, just because they believe that you're sinning when you do so? The fact that bacon is legal doesn't force anyone to eat it, and the fact that it's against some people's religion doesn't prevent those who want to from eating it. That's pretty much the definition of "Religious Freedom".
Why is gay marriage any different? Tradition? The Biblical admonishment against pork goes back just as far as its condemnation of gay s** (the scriptures that reference them aren't even all that far apart from each other), so that can't be it. I think the uncomfortable Truth is that you like bacon, so you ignore that scripture (along with all of the other Old Testament laws that you pay no attention to), but the thought of gay people having s** makes you feel icky, so you hold up that scripture as justification for your homophobia. If thinking about gay people having s** really bothers you that much, then here's a thought: Just stop thinking about gay people having s**. Problem solved.
There's a reason that your religious beliefs aren't The Law in this country (no matter how much you might sometimes want them to be). Remember the uproar about "Sharia Law"? Well, do you know what Sharia Law actually is? It's a faction of Islam that wants to enforce its religious beliefs on others, by having them made into law. Sounds terrible, doesn't it? You know what else would be terrible? Having YOUR religious beliefs made into law (or anybody's really). Why is Sharia Law a "bad thing", but outlawing things that your religion is opposed to is supposedly a good thing? Surely you see the hypocrisy there.
But back to bacon... If you believe that bacon is a sin, then don't eat bacon. If you believe that gay marriage is a sin, then don't get gay married.
That's Religious Freedom."

thats something that the SJWs DONT UNDERSTAND and the point i was trying to make. Churches are going to say no to marry gays because it is against their religous beliefs and everyone is soon going to be pissed since they are discriminating gays. It is just going to be a never ending ****storm

Hey mang, this is Murica'.

What would this country be if there were no two opposing sides going at each other's throats?  

Amen, colin.  

The city I live in denied almost 5 lgbt couples a marriage license. This is a nice law and all, but still not working for little redneck citys in texas.  

I heard that the churches would have to start paying taxes .
