"Kim Davis is supposed to have freedom of religion, and we are here today to fight for Kim's freedom to tell same-sex couples her religion is more important than their equality under the law," stated Franklin Pilot, pastor of the Lynchburg, Tennessee church My God Is Supreme, Your Constitution Is Subservient.

Pilot added, "If America's greatest Founding Father Jesus Christ was president again, none of this would be happening. Everyone who has taken Civics 101 knows Christ created America and declared it to be a 'Christian Nation.' Just because liberal textbooks censor that information doesn't make it untrue."
A short time after the interview, Pilot led all of Davis' supporters in a prayer begging Jesus Christ to "return and set everything right again" so that "Christians can impose their religious beliefs on everyone else just like you want."
Kim Davis released a statement from her jail cell thanking her supporters, and announced she was "still researching the Bible for passages where Jesus said he hated gay people and same-sex marriage."
