      I’m always on the side of a clergy who doesn’t want to perform a marriage for any reason, but this isn’t that. This person is a public office and their personal opinions don’t enter into it, full stop.

      I’m with you. This judge should be impeached and have their law credentials revoked. They’re failing to perform the duties of their office, they get fired.
