Obviously, there isn't one.

Unfortunately, the religious right is spreading the LIE that if gay couples are allowed to go to city hall and get marriage lisences that churches will be forced to marry gay couples or be sued for discrimination.

The fact is that churches can refuse to have a religious marriage ceremony for a couple if they don't like the bride's dress if they want to, or any other reason they can think of. And, churches all over the country do perform religious marriages for gay couples all the time.

So, there is no logical reason.
