EMPORIA (KSNT) – An Emporia music teacher was let go from her job after authorities at the school learned she had organized a “Vote No” rally on the steps of the William Lyndsay White Civic Auditorium in July.
Alexis Lowder, a music teacher at Sacred Heart of Jesus, Catholic Church & School, was told her, “…words and actions while organizing and participating in a ‘Vote No’ rally are inconsistent with the teachings of the Catholic Church.” With that, Lowder said the school terminated her employment.(snip)
After moving to Emporia, Lowder learned Sacred Heart had been looking for a music teacher, and although she was tentative, she applied and was hired by the elementary school. Lowder, who was raised Catholic but is no longer practicing and hasn’t been for nearly eight years, said she was asked about her faith during the hiring process.
“They did ask about my faith, but it was never an issue,” Lowder said.
Although Lowder feared retribution from Sacred Heart, she said she felt like she had to do something.
“It was such a pressing issue the day the Supreme Court issued the decision, I knew I couldn’t just lay in bed,” Lowder said. “I had the ability to bring people together.”
On July 9, Lowder led a rally with approximately 200 people who gathered to rally for abortion rights. Lowder confesses she was once on the other side of the issue, but never identified with the pro-life movement.
“You can’t be pro-life and be pro-death penalty,” Lowder said. “All lives are important.”(snip)
Lowder said she started to develop a stronger sense of empathy. “Catholic women are getting abortions at the same rate as other women,” Lowder said.
Will KS Republicans back abortion restrictions after Primary loss? The former music teacher said she is not sure what her next move will be, and whether she will seek legal action.
“I haven’t decided whether to take legal action,” Lowder said. “But, they are definitely in the wrong.”
Lowder does not believe employers have the right to tell employees what they can do when they are not at work.
“My politics outside school is not their business,” Lowder said. “I think this is what they want. We’re seeing so many conservative attacks on teachers.”

The irony.
they condemn the innocent to death, and allow the guilty out on no bail
No real loss for the school...
Looks at picture.... Tharrrr shhheeee blooows!
A Muslim is waiting in line at Heaven’s gate. A man further up the line says he’s Jewish. St. Peter says, “Okay, you’re in section five. But please be quiet passing section two.” Next up a man says he’s Buddhist. St. Peter says, “You’re in section four, but please be quiet passing section two.” When he gets to the head of the line, he tells St. Peter he’s a Muslim. St. Peter says, “Section nine. But please be quiet going past section two.” The man says, “Why do I need to be quiet passing section two?” St Peter says, “That’s the Catholics. They think they’re the only ones here.”
Leviticus 24:17 ESV
“Whoever takes a human life shall surely be put to death.”
Maybe she should’ve read her bible a little more closely.
The irony is that Cancel Culture works both ways.
That’s a lot of white women voting to kill black children!
This is not correct. Unlike abortion, where the fetus is absolutely innocent, the Church has never categorically condemned execution of criminals and capital punishment as an absolute moral evil, because adult humans are deemed to at least have agency, and power over the choices they make.
Devout Baptists think everyone else is going to hell and some theirs they’re not too sure about.
“You can’t be pro-life and be pro-death penalty,” Lowder said. “All lives are important.”(snip)
LOL How does that sentence logically lead to being proabortion? They should fire her simply for being dumb.
They don’t think of it as a human life.
👍 exactly
Nice joke, but in reality there will be damn few catholics anywhere near heaven.
She tool a job that required her to sign an ethics clause, saying that she would NOT openly dispute the Catholic doctrine, and then complains when she is required to fulfill her vow.
Not a sharp knife from any drawer.
None of those women in the picture have a xhance of getting pregnant
A crowd that upholds the premise that women who are BOTH nasty & looks-limited are communist supporters & voters...
What was asked and was she truthful?
Did her employment contract reference a code of conduct?
If yes, did she agree to said conduct?
Well, yes, Alexis you can distinguish between an innocent, blameless baby and a dangerous, criminally evil, reprobate
who has offended social norms to the point of capital punishment.
As a snide aside, Alexis, you and your cohorts have little skin in the game of unwanted pregnancy.
