16:42Now PlayingRecently, United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas issued an opinion that attacked the 2015 Supreme Court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, the decision that federally legalized marriage equality, as unconstitutional as it “bypassed” the “democratic process” and caused people “with sincerely held religious beliefs concerning marriage” to “find it increasingly difficult to participate in society.” “By choosing to privilege a novel constitutional right over the religious liberty interests explicitly protected in the First Amendment, and by doing so undemocratically, the Court has created a problem that only it can fix,” wrote Thomas, who was joined by Justice Samuel Alito. “Until then, Obergefell will continue to have ‘ruinous consequences for religious liberty.’” Thomas made the statements about Obergefell while denying a petition from Kim Davis, a county clerk in Kentucky who has been involved in litigation ever since she refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples while citing her Christian beliefs.
