Pastor Sentenced To Prison Over Refusal To Wed Gay Couples by chibyksveejay(op): 9:12pm On Jul 16, 2015
56-year-old Paul Horner has been sentenced to one-year in prison after he refused to wed gay couple. The sentencing of Paul, a Christian priest at the Proctor Church in Vermont comes shortly after the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision ruling that states must allow gay-marriage.
Paul Horner’s attorney,Tom Downey also said: Horner was just using his best judgement according to his rights and religious freedom in this country.
’During the court hearing, HonorableMyron Danushanded down the sentence saying: ‘Religious freedom goes both ways, Mr. Horner, It is not your place to deny individuals the same rights that everyone else has, rights thatwere passed down and agreed upon in a court of law.
’‘The ultimate court, the Supreme Court. It is not your decision whether or not you agree with the law but more importantly that you follow it and enforce it.’
