So society gets to foot the bill for her religious beliefs.
Imagine that.
And if Kentucky had fired her as they should have to begin with, society would have had to foot that bill too for the ensuing lawsuit.
Imagine that.
And society is taking on a "keep your religion to yourself" attitude.
Imagine that.

And it looks like there's an even bigger poke in the eye coming now from the Ark Encounter project:

They just transferred ownership (as a for-profit company) of the Ark project (for $10) to the non-profit company Answers In Genesis.
That means they will pay no city, state, or federal tax on a $48 million parcel of land.

I wonder if she would have turned away a hetero Jewish couple or a hetero atheist couple. Provided they gave her that information.

Guys, I felt the same way-she was elected to follow the law and serve the people.

I made that opinion known while the issue was in progress on another outdoor site and got a merciless beat down!
