People who
live in glass houses should not throw rocks at people wanting to get married for
the first time. Turns out Divorce Queen Kim Davis, Town Clerk Rowan County,
lives in a glass house and is throwing boulders at her neighbors.
Typical Cafeteria
Hypocrite Christian. With Christians like Kim, no wander that religion has
become a dead religion in America.
Chat outside
the courthouse among the protesters says that Ms. Davis, the County Clerk, is
on her fourth marriage, though nobody thinks that diminishes her faith. Her
mother held the post for some years; her son serves as her assistant. That's
not mean, angry conversation. It's a headshake from people who know her and are
sorry it has come to this. (The same chat says at least one employee is gay,
and so the county may be looking at a hostile work environment.)
Our regional
hospital (which, along with the university, attracts a number of professionals
to the community) was brought here largely through the intercession of a
lesbian physician, who convinced the Sisters of Notre Dame to plant their
mission here. Even today few would be comfortable to see it said to plainly and
there is not a large Catholic community here.
Best guess,
the county is evenly split on gay marriage. And that's optimistic counting.
