Originally posted by Kidicious View PostThere's a big difference between a law changing that doesn't conflict with a large portion of the populations religious beliefs and one changing that doesn't. Really this case is all about what's wrong with this country in not understanding that.
Fun fact: 6 out of 9 members of the Supreme Court are Roman Catholic. Two of those justices (Kennedy, Sotomayor) understood that their legal opinion in interpreting the law is different from their personal beliefs.

I think you are misrepresenting her. She just doesn't think she should have to approve of gay marriage. She says it would harm her state if she resigned. I don't know if that's true or not. I don't have an opinion on it either.
I kind of think she should have resigned too. However, I don't equate her with Hitler for not resigning. In fact I won't agree with you that she's a bigot. You don't understand my religion.
She has to either do her job, or resign. She can't simply collect a massive paycheck and refuse to do the work involved - at least, not without showing she has no ethical standards at all. The state manifestly will be helped, not hurt, by her resignation. At a minimum, it will be $80,000 the richer.The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty…we will be remembered in spite of ourselves… The fiery trial through which we pass, will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the last generation… We shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth.
