Religious liberty and SSM in New York

Following up on some other MOJers' recent posts (e.g., Rob, Fr. Araujo, Russ, and Steve), here is Matthew Franck, commenting on the uncertain future but continued importance of religious liberty.  In Franck's view, the religious-liberty protections contained in the recently enacted SSM law in New York are "woefully inadequate[.]"  We'll see.  It has been a premise of the letters that Tom Berg and I, and several others, have submitted to legislatures considering changes to their states' marriage laws that it is possible to find compromises that meaningfully protect religious freedom while moving to authorize and legally recognize same-sex civil marriages.  I hope that premise is sound.
