I am forced to live in a world where my beliefs are constantly disrespected yet their beliefs are seen as objective truth. Christians are forced to do gay marriages now.
Really? Show me any case where that's true, unless the person doing the officiating is a government official (typically a judge or mayor). In that case, they chose to be what they are totally outside the domain of their faith, and those jobs come with the requirment to treat all people equally. Religous leaders are not under those constraints, and marry whoever they please.
Would you prefer to have governement entities free to deny you services? That's the alternative.
