Not goods in services.
This situation is unique because marriage is believed by Christians to be an institution of God. Since homosexuality is wrong based on The Bible, then it would be wrong by Christian standards to issue them marriage licenses.

Marriage is an institution of the government. Matrimony is religious. If marriage is religious, only religious people should marry.

[quote]Then they have no grounds to complain[/quote] On what grounds do you say this? [quote]They're confusing matrimony with marriage. Marriage is an institution of the government. Matrimony is religious. If marriage is religious, only religious people should marry.[/quote] You take that up with them, the Bible says Marriage not matrimony so you go argue with God about that one. [quote]Then it's equally as wrong to issue marriage licenses to [u]any [/u]sinners.[/quote] Not exactly, the Bible says that there is grounds for forgiveness. She can't decipher from a look that they have or haven't repented. But she can easily spot a homosexual who is unrepentantly and knowingly disobeying God in the eyes of her Religion.

[quote]On what grounds do you say this?[/quote]Because if the Bible doesn't forbid selling your goods or services to gays, I'm not sure what she's objecting to with regards to her religion.

Okay let me rephrase this: The Bible says that Homosexuals don't have the right to be married. That's the basis on her religion she's objecting on.

Glad you asked. 22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. 26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing … 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 2 But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband. 9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,
