“the Church would simply terminate this person for violation of the morality clause”

which they would also challenge as disctiminarion or a violation of their civil rights since their ‘marriage’ is ‘recognized’ by the ‘state’.

This will end up in the supreme court.

Nope. If I sign a Employee Contract with a "Morality Clause" (especially with a religious organization), I am compelled by that clause to not oppose that institution's belief's, to take any action against the organization's belief structure, or to commit certain "sins", despite the fact that these "sins" are perfectly legal.

For example, say you take a job as a teacher working for a Catholic/Baptist/Mormon/Luthern based school - and you decide it would be a great idea to have 3 co-eds move in with you .... do you suppose you would be fired? Was this illegal?

And the courts nowadays could decide the Church doesn’t belong in any business or enterprise that isn’t Sunday services. The Left would be perfectly ok with that outcome.
