So if Conway can refuse to defend Kentucky's marriage law, then ...

So if it's okay for Conway to refuse to perform his constitutional obligation and defend Kentucky's marriage law because he conscientiously objects to it, is it okay for a Christian baker or florist not to provide a cake or flowers at a gay wedding because they conscientiously object to it?

    As I pointed out below, Conway did defend the law, and KRS 15.090 gives him the discretion to decide whether or not to file an appeal. In some Kentucky cities, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is prohibited.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:

1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.

The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.

Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
