If You Don't Want To Abide By The Rules Seek Employment Elsewhere

Correct, but would Coke be willing to fire you merely for the future act of drinking a Pepsi (without photographic evidence, without intent of promotion or selling, and so forth)?
If it could be proven that I drank pepsi they would fire me regardless as to my reasons.
They were that hardass about it.
 
Don't talk about it.
The new rules don't forbid you from having a son from artificial insemination, it prohibits you from publicly promoting artificial insemination. So don't publicly promote it.

and if people already know? who gets to decided what public support is? WHat if you have already supported it in some fashion?
I also dont read it that way either.

no thanks

As hard as I find that to believe, would you be willing to believe they would pursue that course?
 
1.)tough ****. You shouldn't have gone to work for a Catholic school with openly gay children.
2.)I'm sure if your openly opposed to your gay children they'll let you keep your job though.

1.)LMAO why not?
since there are many Catholics that have no problem with gays and equal rights and this school particular didnt have any issue with it when you first signed the original contract. Theres ZERO reason to be concerned about working for this catholic school and what if the child came out during?
2.) and how to you have to "oppose" them? disown them? who gets to decide? lol

like i said its crap.
 
If that's the way it's intended to be enforced, then I think it's wrong. When I think of "public support," I think rallies, joining such groups, etc. Perhaps it just needs more clarification.

now see THAT i would be ok with!

because that is in control of a person and IMO a POSSIBLE normal request from a catholic school not just a shady move to fire people

maybe you are 100% right maybe its spells out details already that we simply dont have
 
As opposed to the traditional catholic way of sexeducation of having your child raped by a priest.

1. This isn't even about sex education.

2. Get a new mindless slogan.

I love win-wins! ;)

They did.

It isn't a question would they actually do that. They did do that to other people who worked for Coke. Used to work for Coke.

Or by the Boy Scouts swimming instructor.
 
so the people who say that it is the schools right do you also agree with companies that tell employees to not swear at work? Not smoke on the property even outside? or fire people who bring guns to work?

Good question, but better yet private businesses in at will states can, and do, fire employees for doing things outside the work place they may disagree with....from smoking to attending a political function. I wonder how they feel about that?
 
As far as who has a right to do what, both of these sides have the right to do exactly what they are doing.

The employer can change their morality clause. The employee can not like it and protest. If they can't come to terms, they can end their dealing with the other party.

As far as what's right, even God doesn't expect people to be perfect. This morality clause seems a bit extreme, but it would only become a problem for me if they acted on it by firing people without a very good reason (ie: firing people for hearsay about them being seen at a gay bar or something). These things are often used as a legal-ese way of insuring they can get rid of someone who becomes a problem for the school's public image.

um, God will send you to hell if your not perfect.
 
um, God will send you to hell if your not perfect.

Not if you ask forgiveness first. Maybe they should put a forgiveness clause in the contract that says if you confess your sins you won't be punished.
