THE NEW TOLERANCE: City Threatens to Arrest Ministers Who Refuse to Perform Same-Sex Weddings.
The wedding chapel is registered as a “religious corporation” limited to performing “one-man-one-woman marriages as defined by the Holy Bible.”
However, the chapel is also a for-profit business and city officials said that means the owners must comply with the local nondiscrimination ordinance.
That ordinance, passed in 2013, prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and it applies to housing, employment and public accommodation.
Presumably, the owners would refuse service to two heterosexuals of the same sex, so they aren’t actually discriminating on the basis of “sexual orientation.” But let’s crucify them anyway.
