[quote]Keyword: [b]Can[/b] It hasn't.[/quote] Did I not just give an example? [quote]And by that logic, we shouldn't infringe on this woman's beliefs.[/quote] Yes, but Federal Law takes precedence over religion. That part is covered by the "Separation of Church and State" clause. [i]In 1878, the Supreme Court was first called to interpret the extent of the Free Exercise Clause in Reynolds v. United States, as related to the prosecution of polygamy under federal law. The Supreme Court upheld Reynolds' conviction for bigamy, deciding that to do otherwise would provide constitutional protection for a gamut of religious beliefs, including those as extreme as human sacrifice.[/i] So, as you can see, Federal Law [b]can[/b] restrict religious beliefs.

[quote]Can it restrict this one then?[/quote] Yes. No one is being forced to hand out marriage licenses considering how you can always quit if you disagree with the law.

But you're forcing someone to quit because of their religious beliefs?
-
No, that's only their reason behind them not doing their job. Not doing their job is the basis for them getting fired.

I was about to agree with you, but since you wanna be a dick.

I'm sorry, who's the one that's been using a circular argument? It's abundantly clear the only reason you instigated this dialogue is because you just wanted some vindication. And please, prove me wrong.
