Linda Gray Kelly, a Justice of the Peace in Massaschusetts who resigned her position as a JP rather than marry same sex couples. I have to follow the law of God and my Catholic faith, Gray said in her letter, if my memory serves.

Bravo to Linda Gray Kelly. We need more like her that stand up for their faith. It is just ridiculous that they never put in a conscience clause in the law there. Tolerance is now a one way street where those with religious convictions are not allowed to enter. Instead we loose the very type of people with true integrity that our government so desperately needs.
Peter Sean Bradley of Lex Communis also has some thoughts on this story.

BRAVO BRAVO!!!
Her eternal mother will be very pleased.
That’s the best news I’ve heard all day.
Thank God for people like her.
I Hope people like her (and all Christians) vote this November or we could have more trouble.
Please God, Help us!!
Well done Linda Gray! I hope ABC plays this up on the news tonight, you know, how she stood up for what’s right instead of following orders like those soldiers who tortured people in Iraq.
This is great. Is there a way to send a message of admiring congratulation?
Wow – that’s a Justice of the Peace with really firmly held convictions. Tolerance vs. convictions… it will be interesting to see what happens in MA and the US in the next 20 years…
