[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1508832, member: 19397"] The problem is, though, that those who are married are afforded certain rights that those who aren't are denied. That's where the problem lies. I don't care what you call it, make the rights equal and then there wouldn't be a problem. Also, if you were to take away a church's right to be non-profit, you'd solve a lot of the animosity that goes along with denying the right of marriage to one group and not another. I think, after this ruling, that if a church declared itself as "for profit" there wouldn't be much one could do if they decided to deny performing a marriage ceremony b/c it would be based on the grounds of religious freedom. That way, if a pastor felt deeply enough about it to refuse to do it, they'd be OK. [/QUOTE]
