And next they will sue because they won’t be welcome at certain events at the school. Will she sue when the priest refuses her communion? It never ends. there is no logical limit for these folks.
Tough one but easiest if the employment is always “at will”.
I don’t have a huge problem with lesbians pretending they are married, no more than when little girls pretend they are princesses or dragons. I have a gigantic problem with evil thugs using predatory lawsuits to attempt to suppress our individual, God-given right to the free exercise of religion. The women filing this lawsuit are reprehensible and disgusting.
This is true, but she was "singled out" for a defensible, rational reason. It's this: marriage is a formal public act, and so it constitutes an objective fact and NOT a personal judgment (the kind of subjective judgment Christians are not supposed to do.)
Because marriage is an overt declaration predicated on a contract or license (a legal state), it is actually more just to fire a person for "gay marriage" than for reputedly cohabiting with a romantically/sexually involved sweetie.
Sweetie.
It seems to me that the lion’s share, if not all, of the predatory activity by the homosexuals is targeted on Catholics or the Catholic Church itself.
This tells me the Catholic Church is truly the one that Jesus said that ‘upon this rock I will build my Church...’, and explains why satan’s fools are looking to take them out.
However, we are also told “...the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”.
I will give you a example from experience. In the late 1970s I was in college and an active Libertarian. At one point we made coalition with a number of other groups over some public issue. At a strategy meeting a member of the Socialist Workers Party (Trotskyites) made mention of disallowing "hate speech". That was the first time I heard the term. Now, about 40 some odd years later, "hate" as a additional charge is a part of much of our criminal law.
Lefties are like termites and produce much of the same destruction as do the insects.
If the Catholic school in question was teaching students about 10th Amendment-protected state powers versus constitutionally enumerated rights as it should be doing, then perhaps the misguided, low-information lesbian woman in question might have though twice about suing the school for the following reason.
Regarding state anti-discrimination laws, the corrupt, pro-LGBT media never mentions the following about such laws. Not only have the states never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called politically correct LGBT “rights” as the Founding States had carefully done with the rights expressly protected by the Bill of Rights, fictitious constitutional LGBT “rights” now wrongly being legislated from the bench by pro-LGBT activist judges and justices, but also consider the following.
The states prohibited themselves from making laws which abridge constitutionally enumerated rights, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech in this case. This protection is evidenced by Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, NJ's discrimination law probably a good example of such a prohibited law imo.
14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Is a parochial school a public accomodation?
In other words, is it a church-run educational institution, or merely a government school that happens to be administered by church personnel?
If the former, they should have the right to fire her as a bad example for the students, by their beliefs. If the latter, she stays.
I vote for a), and the US has always voted for a). In totalitarian countries, the state always has the last word on education... and on everything else. THe Dems always want “The Party” line, whatever it may be at the moment, to be the last word.
They need to look into this cafeteria Catholics history at the school in relation to being the girl’s basketball coach. I guarantee she was hired on years ago without telling the school she was not living her life according to the faith, as in being an open lesbian. Let them interview some of the former basketball players. 10 to 1 says they’ll come out of the woodwork and say they were sexually abused by this dyke, who’s now “married” and “settled down”. The school had every right to fire her and many others have been fired for the same reasons and the Supreme Court has affirmed the rights of private schools to set their own hiring and firing standards.
