So like... yes, this endangers same-sex marriage. It also endangers interracial marriage. It also endangers marriage for people who aren't Christian.

This is a blanket permission to be as bigoted as the clerk wants to be.

And if you don't think the fascists will push this as far as it will go, you haven't been paying attention.

Tennessee Republicans just quietly overturned gay marriage

Public officials in Tennessee can now refuse to grant a marriage license to anyone at their own discretion, for any reason.

@miriamrobern Just like all the states that started their abortion bans, it’s all being done to go to SCOTUS which will reverse Obergfell because it’s been in the RNC playbook since 2016. Just as overturning Roe. After that is disregarding Constitutional law for Biblical law. What we really need is a ban on religion because it’s nothing but trouble.
