“As a result of the victory, many believe it could play a role in a federal lawsuit that is attempting to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized gay marriage.”
(Protestia) In what has been hailed as a “massive rollback for LGBTQ rights,” a new ruling by the Texas Supreme Court has granted judges the freedom to refuse to perform ‘same-sex weddings’ if it violates their sincerely held religious beliefs.
While previously judges who refused could face disciplinary actions, on account that it would “cast doubt on their ability to act impartially or interfere with the proper performance of judicial duties,” the state’s judicial codes have been updated to read: “It is not a violation of these canons for a judge to publicly refrain from performing a wedding ceremony based upon a sincerely held religious belief.”
