A former French teacher who was fired for refusing to use a transgender student’s “preferred pronouns” has won a massive settlement after the Virginia school board was ordered to pay him $500,000 in damages.
In 2018, Peter Vlamingiled a lawsuit against the district after he was fired.
The lawsuit argued that Vlaming’s termination violated his religious beliefs.

It’s so revealing how activist these freaks are. People don’t even USE gendered pronouns when addressing someone. They say “you.”
where in VA?
$500,000 for not using Gibberish ,\o/
Too bad it’s not the principal/administrator who did the firing that’s paying the $500,000.
Yup, taxpayers take another for the other team.
In my opinion, it shouldn’t even have to be based on religious protections to win that suit.
Some kid could come to school one day wearing a three wolves t-shirt and telling everyone he demands to be “King in the north”. It doesn’t mean other people have to address him that way!

You can’t fire a teacher for trying to teach a braindead student proper English. I hope the teacher enjoys his retirement. He deserves it.
In 2018, Peter Vlaming filed a lawsuit against the district after he was fired.
Too bad the process took six years.
Vlaming tried to accommodate the student by consistently using the student’s new preferred name and by avoiding the use of pronouns altogether. But school officials ordered him to stop avoiding the use of pronouns to refer to the student, even when the student wasn’t present, and to start using pronouns inconsistent with the student’s sex.

Take that ya wankers! (He shoulda got more for disrupting his life over complete asinine nonsense!)
Surprising to me is that this woke pronoun stuff was going on during the Trump years.

It’s origins even go back to Obama’s terms. His ascendency marked the beginning of all sorts of bold, Left-wing cultural activism.
Agree, but it may be easier that way to win.
While it is imposing on his freedom of religion, it’s also compelled speech. The State has made LGBT their religion and believe they have the right to impose the ideology on teachers and students in public schools. They have no such authority.
LGBT and abortion are pillars of the God-less religion. Just because they claim their is no ‘God’ that is the umbrella to their beliefs doesn’t mean it isn’t an ideology equal to a recognized religion. This is the problem.
“The apostasy and the Days of Lot are upon us. As prophesied by Jesus Christ Himself.”
Indeed. Jesus will come again on a day much like today. Today is Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets. This feast pictures the rapture the same way the four Spring feasts picture the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, and the coming of the Holy Spirit.
Before the Day of the Lord (i.e. the second coming) there must be the apostasy you mentioned. It will be connected with a great, worldwide persecution of God’s people by the antichrist who also must be revealed (by the abomination of desolation) before the Day of the Lord. See Second Thessalonians 2.
A mark of this great apostasy is not just doctrinal error, but “Christians” hating and betraying one another. That’s not so far-fetched. It happened in the Reformation era when Catholics persecuted Protestants, and Protestants persecuted Catholics and other Protestants. Judging by the heated debates that take place on our own religious forum, it does not seem that far away to me, even if most of us agree on major doctrinal issues.
