The article states that he was fired because he wouldn't pray to Jesus Christ(which was a mandatory activity) at the training session. If this is true, seems pretty obvious that this was a case of religious discrimination.....
They are of course welcome to start their own business. Or they could go work for a smarter, more enlightened employer. Why would they want to work in an environment where their boss hates them and only hiured them because the government told him he had to. I would think it strange if a business would do better by hiring inferior personnel, which would be the case as long as we are only talking about not outlawing discriminatory hiring practices. Yeah, and what if they had different bathrooms for women and men as well. Oops. These rules seem pretty arbitrary to begin with on what is legal and what is not. If some company wants to have 50 different drinking fountains color coded by skin tone, that is their stupid idea that they get to waste money on. It seems like it would be a little weird to hate someone so much that you can't use the same water cooler, but not enough to prevent you from hiring them.
Please. Someone. Anyone. Say something. I'm so stunned by StupidMoniker thinking this is all fine and dandy that I can't even respond to him adequately. It's like this: Some people are racist. If they are allowed to be racist in the name of business competition, then people looking for jobs get screwed, because there is an unequal power distribution at work. Thus, there would be a short and slippery slope to segregated businesses and segregated workplaces. And you don't see *anything* wrong with that? Am I just nuts? Does no one else find this attitude deeply distasteful?
