Quaker Official Refuses To Issue Gun License

Alan: If Kim Davis' refusal to perform her job -- while insisting she keep it -- has legal standing, Quaker officials could refuse to issue gun permits and Muslim officials could refuse to issue driver's licenses to women.

It is a historical fact that slavery was preached from the pulpit so that practitioners of "old time Religion" could, in conscience, refuse marriage licenses to biracial couples.

Christian Defense Of Slavery Preached From The Pulpit

But beyond this predictable debate lies a more fundamental issue, now conveniently scotomized.

From the Christian point of view, the linchpin degradation of marriage took place when Christians themselves began to divorce in numbers essentially equivalent to secular society.

Once "the Christian rank-and-file" "broke rank," The Party of Family Values elected, and thus normalized, the nation's first (and only) divorced president, Ronald Reagan.

People and societies accommodate "water under the bridge," even devout Christians formerly aghast at hint of heterodoxy. 

Such accommodation often occurs when a family member embodies a previously verboten behavior - divorce, same-sex relationship, working on The Lord's Day.

Is there one American Christian in a million who would agree with Jesus' teaching in The Gospel of Mark, the oldest of the four canonical gospels?

"What God has joined together, man must never separate... Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”

Before quitting her post (the only honorable thing to do), Kim Davis should express Christian opposition to issuing marriage licenses to divorced applicants.
