Sorry, I've got to side with the employer here. Employers pay employees to work, not make moral judgments of other employees. It wasn't in his job description to evaluate the personal lives of his co-workers.

I imagine if he had said to another employee, "Your Christian faith is wrong", most would be screaming for his head and celebrating his firing.

Good luck getting more than a handful to see the double standard. I gave up on that a while back.

I agree with you. This kid was stupid for bringing it up.
If she insisted on talking about her gay marriage he could have suggested she focus on her work and not her personal life during business hours. Didn’t this idiot read his assistant manager manual? The first 50 pages probably covered these issues.

The manager repeatedly brought the issue up to him. How come the employer rules don’t apply to her?

The employee has a Constitutional Right to the Freedom of Religion, although it is true the place of business would not necessarily be a place to espouse those beliefs.

So, obviously, if you allow an employee to espouse her pantheistic lesbian beliefs to demean your own belief system, then that employee shouldn’t be punished for responding to the “religious” violation of the rude lesbian.

She should have been the one who was fired by harassing the Christian with her defense of immoral behavior in the guise of a fake “civil right” which allowed her to indulge in such nihilistic, socially destructive behavior.

I don't side with the employer. She brought the issue up for separate times and "It wasn't in his job description to evaluate listen to stories of the personal lives of his co-workers."

And the story kind of sounds like she baited him into it.
