According to Pastor Huckabee , yes.

Nevermind that this guy worked there for 13 years and DID his job:

This is the type of intolerance that I keep seeing more and more against Christians. Why couldn't the boss have a open discussion between the employees and work out an arrangement that makes everyone comfortable? Nope, they wanted him gone immediately. If this is the new America then a Christian needs to be extremely careful with socializing in the workplace!

The author nailed it. The broad use of "discrimination" will be used to basically hogtie Christians in public or be punished. Don't like a coworker who doesn't support homosexuality? Just claim they are making you "uncomfortable" and watch them get kicked out the door!

Culture: Ohio factory worker fired for recommending Christian movie to lesbian co-worker | Best of Cain

hmmm....sounds like he got fired for being a Religious Fanatic?

(why not Sue----he can hire one of those Lawyers from Oral Roberts Law School!)

I suspect he believes god will judge a nation that promotes or condones or tolerates homosexuality.

I guess even god is more obsessed with such things than whether we imprisoned Japanese during WW2, turned away a shipload of Jews fleeing persecution in the same conflict, murdered innocent civilians at Mai Lai and then covered it up, etc. But then that was all done in the name of god and country, wasn't it.

You can eat shellfish and wear cotton/poly because God won't wipe out America if you have the shrimp plate? How about tattoos? There are posters on CD who say having a tattoo will send you to hell. Got a tattoo? A tattoo of a clam would make a great statement, Jeff. Or maybe one that says, "Proudly Anti-Gay!!"

Of course you could go to hell...but what the heck. America won't be hit by a comet.
Why do you assume I'm obsessed just because I participate in these threads? Are you obsessed with destroying Christianity? Most of my thoughts away from here are occupied with seeking God and music. Maybe this thread needs some Stryper. maybe this will calm ya down:

Here's one to take in, Jeff


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpxikuHHG2Q

Long ago in a dusty village
Full of hunger, pain and strife,
A man came forth with a vision of truth
And the way to a better life.

He was convinced he had the answer
And he compelled people to follow along,
But the hunger never vanished,
And the man was banished,
And the village dried up and died.

At a time when wise men peered
Through brass tubes toward the sky,
The heavens changed in predictable ways
And one man was able to find,

That he had thought he found the answer
And he was quick to write his revelation,
But as they were scrutinized
In his colleagues eyes
He soon became a mockery.

Don't tell me about the answer
'Cause then another one will come along soon.
I don't believe you have the answer,
I've got ideas too.

But if you've got enought naivete
And you've got conviction,
Then the answer is perfect for you.

An urban spall sits choking on its discharge
Overwhelmed by industry,
Searching for a modern day
Savior from another place,
Inclined toward charity.

Everyone's begging for an answer,
Without regard to validity.
The searching never ends,
It goes on and on and on for eternity

We should really keep this with nature. Green Grass and High Tides


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R82OM5tzcrk


In a place you only dream of, where your soul is always free
silver stages, golden curtains, filled my head plain as could be
As a rainbow grew around the sun, all my stars above, who died
Came from somewhere beyond the scene you see
These lovely people played just for me

Now if I let you see this place where stories all ring true
Will you let me past your face to see what's really you
It's not for me I ask this question as though I were a king
For you have to love, believe and feel
Before the burst of tambourines take you there

Green grass and high tides forever
Castles of stone, soul and glory
Lost faces say we adore you
As kings and queens bow and play for you

Those who don't believe me, find your souls and set them free
Those who do, believe and know that time will be your key
Time and time again I've thanked them for a peace of mind
That helped me find myself amongst the music and the rhyme
That enchants you there

Green grass and high tides forever
Castles of stone, soul and glory
Lost faces say we adore you
As kings and queens bow and play for you
Yeah they play just for you

Ummmmm..... nope. But my goodness that's an odd question to ask. Are you experiencing headaches? Loss of ability to think straight? I shall pray for you.

OP is just SO BUSY responding to other posts that he might just "miss" this one, or not have time to answer. All par for the course with OP.
