I share your "mixed opinion," but was very glad to see a Christian being protected by anti-discrimination law. I think it is really a wake up call when your employer assumes the right to dictate how you think, as opposed to how you act or perform your job. I wonder, though, if AT&T is in a special position due to the nature of its work (i.e., subject to more government regulation). Personally, I find the idea of being asked to "value" someone else's lifestyle bizarre. All these special groups claim they are asking only for tolerance...but that is proven more untrue every day. For others to tolerate them is insufficient... we must celebrate them! I see no reason why co-workers need to celebrate each other's sexuality of any orientation. I'd be happy if I could get some decent customer service from AT&T; when my telephone goes out, the extent to which AT&T employees are valuing homosexuality really isn't on my radar screen. I give this guy a lot of credit for taking a stand.

I give him credit, as well, but I don't think his case should have made it to court, for reasons already stated.

on all your other points: agreed. I am a nazi at work. the only thing a worker is paid to do is WORK. all else is theft.
