It does not take a smart person to realize that the q is not whether the sin of X is equal to the sin of Y, but whether the sin of X is compatible with the mission of their employer
It does not take a smart person to know that that is very basis of discrimination. Imagine a Mormon firing a catholic because they don’t believe Christ came to America. Or a Muslim firing a Lutheran Mohammed is not their profit.
lol, you have a very weak imagination if you can't imagine something that is perfectly normal
That sentence makes very little sense. Imagine a gay man or woman firing a straight man or woman for being straight... because they’re sexual orientation dictates their cultural beliefs. Wouldn’t that be absurd?
if you were, say, running a nambla chapter and you were afraid a straight "ally" might narc on you to the feds, would you hire him?
simply depends on mission of institution. Alcoholics Anonymous doesn't hire heavy drinkers! Other institutions don't care about drinking but do want chaste and decent employees
AA is a private organization that does not receive federal funding. They can pretty much do what they want in regards of hiring and firing.
do you think the equal opportunity employment commission only regulates government employees? b/c that's a pretty weird mistake to make, given the topic of our convo
No, I do not. Not sure what would lead you to that conclusion. I was simply pointing out that AA is a self funded, private 501c3 that does not receive federal or state funding. So, like a church, they can do what they want regarding hiring and firing practices.
