Church Nursery School Teacher Sues After Being Fired For Living With Fiancee

The Macon (GA) Telegraph reports on a lawsuit filed in a Georgia federal district court on Oct. 3 by a woman who claims religious and gender discrimination in her termination as nursery school coordinator at Friendship Baptist Church in Warner Robins, Georgia.  Plaintiff Jessica Atkinson says that she was asked to resign after church officials complained to her about her relationship with her fiancĂ©e, asked her what she planned to do about living in sin and whether she was being a good Christian. Before filing suit, Atkinson filed a complaint with the EEOC.

he purpose of these provisions is simply to protect the religious liberties of military chaplains who hold to Biblical views concerning sexuality. Every member of our armed forces should be able to serve without surrendering their beliefs.
