If that wasn't enough to get you thinking ..
Most, if not all 'denominations' are not restricted to the U.S.
What happens if another country passes laws that force Gay marriages in whichever church they choose?
That would seem (to me) as an attack on any churches/denominations that don't have protections under US laws?
I say that a church is more than a building, it is a unified belief.
(Church here meaning any denomination that is world wide)
Let's say that I am a Southern Baptist here in America because I believe in their stance against Gay marriage.
I go to Denmark and the Baptist church there is performing Gay marriages?
Wouldn't that be an attack against the world wide denomination of your choosing?
Denmark has just passed a law that will force churches to participate in gay wedding ceremonies.
Homosexual couples in Denmark have won the right to get married in any church they choose, even though nearly one third of the country's priests have said they will refuse to carry out the ceremonies.
The country's parliament voted through the new law on same-sex marriage by a large majority, making it mandatory for all churches to conduct gay marriages.

(Radical leftist Judges on the SC can make it happen through their own activist rulings!)
So here you see .. If you can't destroy them from within .. You can always destroy them from without.
