Discussion: Board: Ohio Judges Can't Refuse To Marry Gay Couples On Personal Grounds

Discussion for article #239307

McConnell said Monday he would abide by the board’s opinion and would marry a same-sex couple if requested.

Gee, that’s very big of you, Judge. Thanks a lot.
Bigot.

Seems this judge is already on record as biased against same-sex couples.

Will he be disqualified from such cases as mentioned?

If the judge is biased against same-sex couples based on religious grounds, what other biases does he bring to the bench based on his sincere beliefs in fairy tales?

Such judges should simply be removed.

“OK, so I guess I will grudgingly perform same-sex marriages when absolutely forced to” does not sound like someone who is unbiased enough to be a judge on any case.

Damn Straight!
If you cannot “DO YOUR JOB” because of your religious views, GET ANOTHER JOB!
I am sick and tired of bending over backwards for those whose “personal religious beliefs” are antediluvian.
If your adherence to bronze-age-fairy-tales is SO STRONG you cannot function in a modern society, then GET THE HELL OUT!
I hear its nice in Somalia this time of year…

Oh, Lord I can hear the whining and rending of garments from the Christobots already! We’re denying their rights by refusing to let them discriminate against couples because of their imaginary (and wholly unsupported) “biblical marriage” beliefs!

Sorry religio-loons, you LOST! Get over it!

I’d be willing to bet many white judges(yea I know they were all white back then) said the same thing when interracial marriage was made legal…

They’re probably garments made of mixed fibers, so…those folks are probably sinning right now.
