Are you saying that having Bible quotes IN one's own work space is discriminating and harassing people?Well, since you brought it up; the only reference to the bible in the article was in the book of Leviticus, and the verse dealing with gays is:
Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
I'd call that 'creating a hostile environment', wouldn't you?

First of all, calling homosexuals "gays" is submitting to their perversion of the English language. "Gay" used to be a useful, noble word indicating light hearted joy. Now it means sodomy.
Second, if HP is going to fire people for having quotes IN their own cubicles that might offend anyone, they're going to have to go over everyone's cubicle with a fine tooth comb and eliminate all kinds of pictures, sayings, and so on that people individualize their work spaces with. And I sincerely doubt they are doing that.
The article specifically noted that they guy's quotes were IN his cubicle. I'm sure there are sayings, pictures etc in other peoples' cubicles that offended him, or other people.
I guess the next step is firing people who have thoughts in their heads that might offend someone - especially if that someone is a homosexual.
