I had my firm which I had spent two decades building, ripped away from me by my two partners last winter. One of the issues was that I objected to the firm supporting a pro abortion "charity." I retaliated by spending firm monty to support the Salvation Army and the ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice). A month later, they began the process of booting me out. I'm glad that they're not my partners anymore and I believe I'm on a much better path now.

Standing up for your principles and beliefs is really all you have, in the end. If they can make you waffle on that, they can make you waffle on anything. Stick to your guns. I was laid off from a 5-year position 2 years ago for not participating in the United Way. I refused to donate again (I withdrew my automatic withdrawal after the gay vs. boy scouts episode), and I refused to go on the yearly United Way tour with my department.

I am happier now, working close to home, less stress, less/no traffic (but also having to make do with less money).

Life is a tradeoff.

Peace

I'm sure it's a lot better not to be "unequally yoked," as the Good Book says.

What a shame that things ended at your firm so badly. But good for you for standing for your principles.
