Donald and Evelyn Knapp, both ordained ministers, have refused to marry a same sex couple in their chapel, The Hitching Post.
Now they face a $1000 fine for each day they decline hold the wedding and up to 180 days in jail.
City officials from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, states that the city has a non-discrimination statute that includes sexual orientation and gender identity, and because same-sex marriage became legal in Idaho on Oct. 15, 2014, the couple would have to conduct these weddings in their chapel.

That should be his business
Perhaps they hate God. That’s how it seems to me.
Jesus was cruxcified for his beliefs, and he is the CREATOR OF ALL LIVING THINGS! The bible says, a q***r is a q***r
I may not believe in any GOD or religion, But I don’t see why this guy should get in trouble for not wanting to marry a same sex couple . He should have the same rights as stores do, Refusel of service . If doing the marrage goes against his beliefs than the gay couplke should just move on and find someone that will do it . Leave this guy alone .
Because the only legal discrimination is against republicans, whites, gun owners, and Christians everything else the ACLU will defend
There was a LGBT business that wouldn’t write a Christian message on a cake and nothing happened to them… We are being oppressed by intolerant minorities
If it is against your beliefs then you shouldn’t be forced to do it. They claim they want this separation of church and state(government) and yet they threaten people with jail time for not going against their religious belief. Another part of Obama’s breaking down America. This should never had come to this if gays want to get married have them go to the Justice of Peace instead of forcing Pastors to go against their religious beliefs. OUTRAGEOUS that our country has come to this and shame on anyone who arrests these people.
The ACLU is aganst all that is good ; check them out, I found out on Christian Radio. !
I’m not a bible thumper, nor am I against gay marriage. but if it’s someone’s choice, they shouldn’t have to marry same sex couples. marriage originated from the Bible. what happened to the separation of church and state?
Its no different then moslum its against his religion.
