A group of Christian pastors plans to fight efforts to pass a state constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage because members say it threatens religious liberty in Arizona and the United States.No Longer Silent-Clergy for Justice, an organization with about 150 members, many of them pastors, argues that a constitutional ban on same-sex marriages would represent persecution of a minority religious group by a majority.No Longer Silent was created in 2001 to organize Christian support for homosexuals.Conservative activists announced after the election that they would seek a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, similar to those that passed in 11 states on Election Day.
