No different than the civil servant - turned soldier of christ we had a thread on a ways back. At least she's referring them though eh?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

A lot different actually, she is saying that she cannot perform a service when it is denied to a segment of the population for no good reason.
It would be the same if women weren't allowed to drive cars and she was expected to issue driving licences to men only.
She would be well in her rights to say "fuck that shit"

While I can understand her position, and I can appreciate that she has found a way to a voice her opinion on such matters, her seat as a judge may not be the best platform for activism. That's all I'm saying. Can't get angry with the church-lady for refusing to marry homosexuals, and then applaud this judge for making exactly the same decision in reverse.

Who better than the makers of law to declare that this law is prejudical and unfair?

Do so officially, in the courtroom, if you're going to leverage your status as a judge.

The difference here is that the "church lady" is required by law to marry gay people. This judge isn't required by law to do any marriages. If your job description says you have to do something, then you are required by law to do it, or to find another job.

The church lady got to marry the person she loved, and even if she flipped her shit for a woman, in her state, she'd be able to marry that woman too (providing she divorced her husband first, of course). The handsome lady Texan judge can't marry the person she loves because they happen to have the wrong genitalia, according to a bunch of church ladies. I can, and do applaud her for what she's trying to do. It's not an ideal, it's a right, and it's refreshing to see someone in a position of power make a statement so bold in an effort to gain equality.
