I'm amazed at the amount of ignorance displayed by many that support her, their claims of our great nation going to hell, having no understanding of our secular constitution.
Radical religion.
Reminds me of another uber religious group of goat fornicating knuckleheads who think they have the right to judge how folks live their lives.

No, only three.

She married #1, got pregnant with twins by #2, divorced #1, married #3, divorced #3, married #2, divorced #2, and is currently married to #3.
But it's the gays that are destroying the sanctity of marriage.

It's Appalachia...
Having more than one tooth makes her a prize catch.
The exorbitant salary is just icing on the wedding cake to a poor Appalachian turd miner.

So, are you suggesting the issue may come to a head?...

Free at last, Free at Last!

I find her religious views silly and devoid of facts.However, the big picture issue is the Supreme Court made an illegitimate political populist decision instead of following the constitution.Then a tyrannical federal judge jailed a woman for following her religious convictions., her christian convictions in particular.

I am sure they would not have done this to a muslim, especially with a sympathetic ear at 1600.

Anyways, she is a brave woman to go to jail for her religious beliefs which are actually protected under the US Constitution, have to admire that.

Specifically, what parts of the Constitution was violated by SCOTUS? What is the "chapter and verse" you can cite to validate the claim of illegitimacy? Please enlighten us with your knowledge of the root Constitutional issues with specific details...

It still boils down to a case of a grandstanding person seeking and finding their 15 minutes of infamy. This person has violated their oath of office and thereby violated the law of their state and is subject to removal. She has also violated a direct court order and is subject to whatever consequences may befall. She is an employee, the "hereditary" nature of her position notwithstanding, and has willfully failed to perform her ascribed duties as set by law, is insubordinate, and continues to be so; any other employer would have fired her out of hand. If she or any of her cohorts wish to really change matters, they should, as somebody once said, win an election and pass a law, within the legal confines of the Constitution and the rendered SCOTUS decisions. All else, is smoke in the wind...

So, if a person breaks the law for religious reasons, then it's ok?

The good news is that everything that Obama has done has been in the name of his Islamic faith, so you'll stop complaining about it, right?

They just said on the news that she's out again (well... not "out" out... they let her out... you know... she's been released)

Both sides did wrong here.

The proper thing would have been to suspend and dismiss her for not fulfilling her mandatory duties as ordered be her employer, the state. The state has a duty to not foster or hinder religious views or practices, the secular status and nature of the state has to be maintained. Defending the freedom for religion does not mean to defend the religion and its claims and demands itself.

The judge however abused his position by trying to force her to change her religious beliefs according to his own views (may they be secular or else), which also is not acceptable, no matter what he thinks how silly they are. So, sending her to jail to make her change her stand on her religious views, is not acceptable either.

The woman should quit her job in state service if state service and religious coinviction collide in her cinscience. If relgious views make her think she can take it upon herserlf to challen ge the duty of the state to stay and protect secularism, she has to be fired. An official and civil servant can be fired if neglecting his duties or refusing to work.

The big news is small news only. Fire the woman from civil service over her rejection to do her work - and done you are.

She was jailed for failure to do here job, not to force her religious conversion. She was given options, she chose her fate.

You do not jail an employee that refuses to do his job. You fire him.

She was sent to jail so that she may rethink - due to her captivity - her religious position that she claimed prevented her from fulfilling her duties and orders as civil servant. But as a civil servant in a secular state, your top boss is not your religious belief, but the state. Don't like that? Get another job then.
