Shoving religion down our throats

Since we do not live in a theocracy, nor Afghanistan, Biblical laws do not apply to your secular job. If you cannot preform your job, you should not be paid $80,000 a year, quit or be fired.

If Kim Davis is so religious, why four marriages, and getting pregnant with another man's child before she married him, and before divorcing the husband who did not get her pregnant, I would say she never lived her religion before, so why now?

Yes, she is a bigot, she only applies the religion when she can attempt to force others to obey, or get in the news cycle. That is forcing her religion down all of our throats, like the Taliban, all the while they are divorcing at a rate of four or more per person. There are biblical writings against that, it is called adultery; then the commandment, "Do not covet thy neighbor's goods." Aren't you doing that, when you're married but another man gets you pregnant?

Most of us feel that anyone who loves someone should be able to marry another,"consenting adult," but, I am sure Kim Davis and her followers have a problem knowing or understanding the word "consenting." Just like they have a problem with the "separation of church and state." They never learned the word, or the meaning of the words, so they cannot understand why they are important. All they want is for the rest of us to follow them. So if your job is impeding their religion, get another job.

Obey secular laws, like the rest of us do, or move to a country that will let your religion be the law, but until you do move, you are the American Taliban, imposing your religion down all of our throats.
