I'm sure there will be a lot of bleeding hearts for people who believe its their job to decide which lifestyle other people deserve to live. Which it isn't, their job is to make sure that everything is legally sound, not to take a subjective look at a persons religious beliefs. And nobody is demanding them to do anything, its their choice to continue with their career or not, if they can't do the job that they are paid to do then I'm sure they will be able to find a new line of work that isn't so emotionally distressing 
A lot of people were pretty put out about people of different races getting married, I'm sure there were people out there saying that they were just too scared of being called a bigot or any of the other various accurate terms you've thrown out there. Someone on this board stated that in 20 years everyone is going to be wondering what all the fuss was about, and I think that time will prove him to be right.

Why shouldn't people in the private sector have the right to marry who they want?
If they are getting paid by the government then they should marry everyone, but if they are in the private sector they should have the right to marry whomever they want. Just like anyone in the private sector should be able to hre and fire anyone they wnat.
You have a stupid haircut? see ya. You are too fat for me? you're gone! you're gay? get the hell out of here. You're black and I'm a racist? no job for you. When it comes to the private sector I could care less why people get fired or don't take on customers. They run the company, they put the money into the company and they take the losses of the company. If they don't want to hire someone for whatever reason they should not have and if they wan to refuse someone service they should be allowed to as weel for whatever reason they feel necessary.
