NY Court: Farmers to Be Re-Educated, Pay Fines for Not Hosting Homosexual Wedding

(CNSNews.com) – A couple who hosts occasional wedding ceremonies on their New York farm have lost an appeal to overturn the $13,000 in fines levied against them by the state’s human rights agency, which ruled that their refusal to host a wedding for two women was discriminatory.

On Jan. 14, the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department, upheld the agency’s order and the fines, a decision the Alliance Defending Freedom - which represented Robert and Cynthia Gifford - said amounted to confirming, “that the government can punish the Giffords for declining to coordinate a ceremony that conflicts with their conscience.”

The couple lives in a barn they built on their farm and have occasionally hosted weddings on the first floor and the surrounding backyard area, according to ADF.

This is not 1939 Germany under Nazi rule! This is an outrage the American people should not stand for. I or anyone else should not be forced to believe in someone elses point of view!

3:26 The government is not forcing Christian views on anybody. We don't want them forcing Anti-Christian views on us. That was the point. If you hate Christians that's your problem.

FNY - Sell the farm. Move to Texas. Let them try to collect. Viva la Revalucion!

3:26 - They chose not to host a homosexual wedding. They did not sue the homosexuals for being homosexuals. The homosexuals created the issue because these people chose to practice their Christianity. Read the First Amendment.
