GAYLES.TV.- All religions and all causes, especially lost causes, have martyrs, heroes, victims of the prevailing faith and legality, and homophobia in the US already has its saint to raise to the altars.
Is Kim Davis, the Rowan County Clerk in the State of Kentucky that, after evaluations made by the Supreme Court, he entered prison last Thursday for repeatedly refusing to issue marriage licenses to gay couples. In Davis' remarks, “Issuing a marriage license that conflicts with the divine definition of marriage, with my name on it, violates my conscience. It is not a harmless subject for me. It is about heaven or hell.
The facts came to light when a gay couple of Rowan decided to file a complaint against the official after presenting for the fourth time the request for marriage and obtain a new refusal. Kim Davis was invited to retract in an official manner but refused. In fact, according to statements from her husband Joe Davis after Kim's imprisonment, "my wife is prepared to be in prison as long as necessary." Well, thank goodness, because it is likely that a condemnation for contempt without repentance will be long enough to help her reflect on what belongs to God and what belongs to Caesar.
The point is that a march has already been held with the participation of hundreds of people who walked 128 km. in support of Rowan's secretary. Among the demonstrators was the presence of the Mayor of Grayson (Kentucky), George Steele, who addressing the concentrates said: "You play a role at this moment in history, God bless you, God bless Kim Davis."
Of course, the Republican candidate and minister Mike Huckabee He has lacked time to convene a new rally next Tuesday, the day he plans to visit Davis in prison to protest what he has called "the criminalization of Christianity in this country."
That said, habemus martyr and in this case of a cause clearly lost.

What is happening with this woman is not fair to me, remember that the gay community has been a victim of discrimination, let's not do to others what we do not want them to do to us, and remember that being gay does not mean being in a fight with God, or not having values, love of neighbor.
