Spin or commentary? Should have at least mentioned that this news is actually from last year after the Ninth circuit court overturned the Idaho ban on gay marriage.- see here.
This source says the article is a mixture of fact and fiction.

As a gay man I say "NO....NO....NO". They better not face ANY government backlash or we lost the fight........

Depends what you mean by Christian...
If you mean a follower of Christ's teaching, who knows...
If you mean those who respect the entire Holy Bible...
Exactly zero gay Christians.

How many gay weddings are being held at mosques these days?
The dictate comes on the heels of a legal battle with Donald and Evelyn Knapp, ordained ministers who own the Hitching Post wedding chapel in the city, but who oppose gay marriage, The Daily Caller reported.

That wasn't a reason, that was an opinion.
Furthermore, you shouldn't answer my "how so" completely out of context.
And while it isn't a "vaccine", it is an antithetical approach.
A pure definition of cognitive dissonance.

i was also under the impression that the state has no jurisdiction regarding religion and church law trumps state every time? both here in UK and in the US a cleric of any faith can and must carry out the doctrine of their faith
and providing its not breaking criminal law the state has no say in the matter period.
the city,council, state, congress, house, parliament or whoever has no right to tell a cleric what service he may
or may not perform in his place of worship.

But it socially acceptable to hate on Christian beliefs while holding other religions in some sort of special place.
