Furor over gay teacher’s firing may pit city of Columbus against Roman Catholic diocese

LifeSiteNews.com

Columbus city law deems it a misdemeanor for an employer to discriminate against an employee based on sexual preference. It is also illegal for employers to have policies that discriminate based on sexual preference. There is no exemption for religious organizations or other employers who object to homosexuality on religious grounds. A guilty verdict carries penalties of up to 180 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.
Comment:

The law has to be unconstitutional, but who knows these days.

Church has the right, under the First Amendment, to fire this woman.  The law is in conflict with religious liberty.
