So disallowing people to spout hate and prejudice against fellow human beings is alienating Christians?

Thank you! This guy is the sort of intolerant zealot that gives Christians a bad name.

I agree with the Bible that homosexuality is sin, but this sort of religious judgementalism doesn't belong in the work place.

Homosexuals have just as much a right to a job as adulterers, unmarried people who live together, singles who run around bars picking up one night stands etc. ALL of which are condemned as sin.

The idea that a so-called "Christian" is going to post scripture deliberately intended to hurt others(as the guy admitted) in order to protest his company hiring those whose personal sins he disagrees with, is just obnoxious.

Did the guy say HP should not hire homosexuals? No, he did not. He was illustrating a point. The company has deliberately offended Christians by putting up posters promoting gays in the workplace. He was deliberately offending the company bureaucrats who came up with this stupid diversity promotion which was probably unnecessary in the first place. Unless the goal of HP is to recruit homosexuals over Christians. (and they have a right to do that in my book)

Yes, but homosexual acts are being glorified and promoted by HP and posters celebrating the same are forced into peoples' cubicles.

All we have is the writer's statement about that, I would like to hear the man's own words.

According to the article, he wanted to remove the "diversity" poster in his cubicle, they wouldn't let him, so he put the quotes up. "Celebrating diversity" (code word for homosexuality) is forced on him, that's ok. But he can't even not have that poster in his cubicle?

People are making the point that "it's a private company etc". Read tubavil's post 73.
