Muslim Truck Drivers Fired For Not Delivering Beer, Jury Awards Them $240K | Fox News Insider

"A jury has awarded $240,000 in damages to two Muslim truck drivers who sued their former employer for religious discrimination after they were fired for refusing to make beer deliveries."

This is just crazy!!! I think some other religious cases need to be revisited.

I totally agree---Like when it comes to baking cakes and making pizza. Both would be great places to start and straighten out this religion has precedent idea...

Still people can go to jail, like Christians not giving marriage certificate out for conscientious religious grounds and mocked by the world , but other religions get a pass on the conscientious religious morals for not delivering beer and make a pay off

The jury decided the company broke the law. Appeals are always available.

Now they can go and sue the companies that won't hire them because of there religious restrictions that prevent them from doing certain tasks that are stated in the job description. Racket hell, it's a gold mine if they find the right Courts that flip flop. Which is not say that was their intended purpose, but I kinda find it odd that they didn't since beer deliveries are usually either part of a companies normal service or they aren't, but if they weren't and they simply acquired new customers later then the drivers had a legitimate cause of action, IMO anyways.
