It sounded like the meeting was opened with a prayer...which is his right....and yours not to pray if you dont want to.
He didnt insult his workers, they were insulted by the truth of their actions. Violating the contract they signed, by doing the things they did....and getting caught...Thats STUPID and you are an IDIOT if you think the boss will still want you working for him without some form of contrition.
Some employers still actually put value in loyalty and a good work ethic.
Life aint fair.
We Christians are just broken down sinners and hypocrites that sometimes admit that they are.
He is the business owner. He can (should be allowed to) hire or fire who he chooses for any reason he chooses. His customer base will decide his success or failure.
Excellent post. Right on the mark.
He admitted that he was firing the many because of the sin of one. That is not only unchristian, it is bad business to discard good workers because of what another person did.
We forget that big money and Christianity are sometimes in conflict. James 5:1-6:
Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

Few will actually pay for it however.
