This is an example of how YOU HAVE TO LEGISLATE MORALITY.

The State will have to determine which morality it will stand up for — Traditional Christian morality or Modern Secular morality.

The state cannot stay neutral on this issue.

You can be fired for being gay in any state if you work for a religious institution, particularly if you sign a morals clause. She did both.

The SCOTUS has already ruled on this 9-0.

Is it true that all female physical education teachers are gay? My school district has several, and they are militant. They also get to teach health.

This could be an interesting case if the teachers lawyer asks the diocese to prove ongoing homosexual activity. As I understand it, the church opposes homosexual acts, not homosexuality per se. Sadly many fifty-seven year old heterosexual couples exist in marriages without sex. It’s possible this couple does too.

Carla Hale (per Bing):

If you've seen one queer lesbian gym teacher, you've seen them all.

more than 40,000 people have signed an online petition demanding the Diocese of Columbus reinstate Hale’s employment and issue a public apology.

K.M.R.I.A.

For you non-readers of James Joyce (can't really say I blame you), that stands for "Kiss My Royal Irish A***."

Hale signed a morality clause as part of her contract

The last time the Church allowed homosexuals to hang around without being fired they ended up getting sued for it.

I didn't know teachers in parochial schools were unionized.

Perhaps she should seek a position at an Islamic school.

First...Where is our petition? Like minded people off the moral persuasion will bury the gay one.
Second....If we’re forced to live with rulings by this piece of crap court, even the homos have to play along. They will never stop until we all agree that buggery is normal and in no way immoral. Don’t see that happening, no matter how hard they force it on us.

So this is the part of the country where people are still reasonably free.

Columbus city law deems it a misdemeanor for an employer to discriminate against an employee based on sexual preference.

It was based on actions not "preference."
