Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee ® signed a bill Wednesday allowing public officials to refuse to perform same-sex marriages.

State lawmakers approved Tennessee House Bill 878 last week. The legislation states people “shall not be required to solemnize a marriage” if they refuse to doing so based on their “conscience or religious beliefs.” According to the Tennessee Legislature website, the governor signed the bill Wednesday.

    “LGBT” doesn’t have to be a conscience or religion belief. You can just state that heterosexual marriage against your beliefs.

        Yep. Jesus had a lot to say about condemning divorce. He didn’t really say anything about anything LGBT-related.
