//Even if it was not deliberate they could have easily backed off when they saw the effect that it was creating and gone elsewhere – then everyone would have had what they wanted.//

So every couple in her county who wants to get married should be inconvenienced just because she feels she has a God-given right not to do her job (but to still get paid for it)? If she objected to the nature of the work that much, why didn't she just quit? An employer can't force you to work for them.

So in summation: Kim Davis didn't want to do her job but wanted to keep going in to work and getting paid for showing up instead of just seeking employment elsewhere. As a result she was found guilty of contempt, jailed, then freed again five days later when her deputies agreed to start issuing marriage licences.

//If you push for a certificate which gives you nothing but takes away the freedom of someone else to conscientiously object//

Nobody took away her freedom to conscientiously object.

//Only the union of a man and woman can define their act as a human unit//

Cool story, bro. You should write a paper. You'd win a Nobel for sure.

If you could prove any of your claims.

Toni Lavis,
Are you totally ignorant of how babies are conceived?

No, I've had it all properly explained in this video:

If a couple buy a house and get properly settled in, buy furniture and so on, have three hot meals a day and wait for a bit then a baby will just pop up.

"Kim Davis didn't want to do her job but wanted to keep going in to work and getting paid for showing up instead of just seeking employment elsewhere"

You think her job consists primarily of issuing marriage licenses?
Did she get RSI from that big red rubber stamp with "MARRIED" on it?
I'm sure there were 1000 other duties she was "getting paid for".

"when her deputies agreed to start issuing marriage licences."

Which they could have done all along.

Lucky Australia whose main concern seems to be the right of everybody, male or female, to have a wife or husband, whichever he/she prefers.

[Written from Europe, where the main concern is how to cope with the influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees coming from traditionally Muslim countries (where the absence of this right is the least of their concerns) as a result of … whatever is the politically correct reason.]
