- I'd like net.reaction to the following hypothetical situation:
-
- A church has an opening for a youth group leader. One applicant
- says that he is a homosexual. The church's board of elders (or
- other governing body) refuses to employ the applicant on the basis
- of his homosexuality, citing Romans chapter 1 and saying that the
- applicant's beliefs contradict the church's values.
-
- In your opinion, has the church acted properly? Should the church be
- forced to hire and/or compensate the individual?
