Justice Thomas will be the catalyst to get the Cout’s ruling on gay marriage overturned

 

Immediate responses from Supreme Court observers seem to concur that Justice Thomas is calling for the Supreme Court to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges.

 

WASHINGTON, D.C., October 5, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected former Kentucky county clerk Kim Davis’s appeal to halt a lawsuit brought by two gay couples after Davis famously refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples following the court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling in 2015.  

“The denies petition by Kim Davis, the KY clerk who refused on religious grounds to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples,” wrote Supreme Court blogger Amy Howe. “Justice Thomas has statement regarding the denial, joined by Justice Alito.”

 

Thomas says that petition ‘provides a stark reminder of the consequences of Obergefell’ v. Hodges, recognizing right to same-sex marriage, & says that the Court has created a problem that only it can fix. Until then, Obergefell will continue to have ‘ruinous consequences,’” reported Howe. 

 

Justice Clarence Thomas, joined by Justice Samuel Alito, penned a four-page statement that one unhappy court observer described as “a jaw-dropping rant taking direct aim at Obergefell and suggesting that SCOTUS must overturn the right to marriage equality in order to protect free exercise.”

 

Thomas’s statement is a searing criticism of the Court’s Obergefell ruling, which imposed same-sex “marriage” across the country, denying states the ability to maintain the definition of marriage as between one man and one woman.  

 

Moreover, Obergefell enables courts and governments to brand religious adherents who believe that marriage is between one man and one woman as bigots,” continued Thomas, noting that “one member of the Sixth Circuit panel in this case described Davis’ sincerely held religious beliefs as ‘anti-homosexual animus.’”

The immediate responses from Supreme Court observers seem to concur that Justice Thomas is calling for the Supreme Court to overturn Obergefell.
