Yessssssss
Agree. I have seen people say conservatives should stop being teachers etc. Why? Conservatives step down and then liberals move in , thus making more power and influence for their agenda.
We have to fight and make our stand, instead of retreating all the time.
My first thought upon reading this.
why did she not just stay at her job and see if she is fired. If she is then she files a lawsuit for her religious beliefs. now a left wing hack or a homosexual will take her place.
How is this good news for us?
May God bless Linda Barnette.
Amen.
Wheat/chaff, goats/sheep.
“How about she just refused on religious grounds, and then keep her job?”
That might have been possible within the scope of her employer’s written guidelines. If she’d stayed, they could’ve made her life miserable.
I worked for a city in California in the H.R. department. I was told by the Director that we were “encouraged” to attend a same-sex “commitment” ceremony for one of the women employees and her partner. I refused — on religious grounds. My life was a living nightmare from then on; my boss made sure of that. I retired a couple years later and it was maybe the happiest day of my life.
So what a person technically CAN do, and what’s the smart thing to do can be two different things. And can you even imagine working eight hours a day with homosexuals in heat traipsing into your office? Even if somebody else is issuing the licenses, still... Who wants to see that?
The fact that he's a spineless, capitulating slug, for starters. Not one "R" Governor had done what needs done - standing up for religion. Instead, they are ALL surrendering. Shameful, and just one more reason I can't stomach another vote for the worthless, spineless, traitorous wretches of the GOP.
Principle. It matters.
Ummm, the lady wasn’t forced to do anything.
It’s in Mississippi. I doubt she would have been forced to do anything.
As for you being encouraged to go, you weren’t forced. You can simply just say “No, I have other things to do.”
Oh I'll serve him alright...
She “quit” because she was afraid that she “might” be forced to, and then forced out because of it.
Before it even happened. Also it looks like her boss would have supported her.
She tucked tail and ran. Now some prissy little princess will fill her spot, and they definitely won’t be able to get rid of him/her/it.
well, yes I think it might
I’m hopeful it a rage inducer
Amen, sister American!
Where this is headed is a question in your application for govt employment about whether you support the homo agenda. If your mind ain’t right, you wont get hired.
This is a flag burning I can whole heartily support
Oh blah, blah, blah,
If I had been in her shoes, I would have figured that in God's eyes, keeping the job while refusing on religious grounds to carry out certain tasks and leaving them to co-workers of less or no faith, would have been surrender.
Say you're a nurse in a doctor's office and assist him in all kinds of procedures to help heal people. Then he adds abortions to his out-patient services. Would you quit working for that doctor because you object to what is surely murder in the eyes of the Lord, or would you insist that when your boss the doctor performed abortions, he used another nurse to assist, but you'd remain to help in every other way for him to continue running a successful practice?
This woman put her money where her mouth is. Staying and declining to do certain work on the technicality of "refusal on religious grounds" would have been surrender.
Standing strong for righteousness is the ONLY way to achieve victory.
