With Christians being fired for believing what Scripture says, we need to consider the possibility that "LGBT Ally" is the Mark of the Beast

You have freedom of religion and freedom of speech. What you do not have is freedom to proselytize, freedom to harass, freedom to bully, or in general freedom to impinge on the rights of another.
You're being fired for the latter, bub.
It's always for:
If your religion is compromised by the conditions of a job, you can't do it. We'd hear less of this nonsense if your churchs and Dominionists weren't encouraging this "get a math teacher position and preach the Gospel to the kids".
You are not God-warriors.
When was the last time someone was fired for being a Christian?
With the arrival of the dominionist movement, the idea of getting in positions of power to dominate the system with Christianity, you probably will get fired for doing a very shitty job. Just like canadiest said now I look at the comments above.
There were unisex toilets in "Ally McBeal", sure, but I don't know what relevance this has to what you're trying to say, little Timmy. [/Doug Piranha-levels of sarcasm]

They've existed for decades . Can't buy anything without one. MUA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!1ONE1eleventyone1
...oh, and a certain Prof. Kevin Warwick would like a word with you. For when this country's most eminent expert in Cybernetics can have chips surgically implanted into his arm, voluntarily and of his own [I]free[/I] will - and way [I]before[/I] any so-called 'Apocalypse' - then your entire tinfoil (ass)hattery-based BS is completely annihilated.
Christians aren't being 'fired'. The likes of McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell et all need all the monkeys paid peanuts they can get, and I doubt anyone like you would be educationally advanced enough to be working for, say, R&D facilities at Apple/Hewlett Packard/Dell/Lenovo etc, so you tell me, Timmy Pukeman?
You can believe whatever stupid shit you want, as long as you do the work you were hired for, and don't infringe on other people's human rights.
Believing is one thing. I can personally believe that all Christians are douchebags and morons (I don't). What I can't do is harass Christians at work and preach at them all day long about atheism. In the latter case it's not even a religious issue, it's a productivity issue and I'd deserve to be canned, regardless of my beliefs.
@Canadiest
if your churchs and Dominionists weren't encouraging this "get a math teacher position and preach the Gospel to the kids"
Yeah, it's weird that they tell their followers to essentially not do their jobs (or at least not focus on them) and then they complain that they're being persecuted. If I wrote atheist blogs all day at work instead of, you know, WORKING I can't call it discrimination if I get canned. Yet they expect to be treated differently.
Oooh, yes, you are SO persecuted. Care to share with us any EVIDENCE of your bullshit claim of Christians being fired for believing what Scripture says? Well? Anything? Didn't think so...
So how would an employer know what you believe? None of my job applications ever asked for a statement of my beliefs. Keep in mind I never worked at AIG or the Creatard Museum though.
On the other hand if you're passing out bibles and proselytizing during lunch hour...

Like, not filling a prescription for Birth Control? Yeah, amazing how many got fired for that rather than, say, getting a fucking legal exemption handed to them so they don't have to violate their precious beliefs!
I'm a Christian LGBTQ ally, and I can back up the reasons for that with scripture.
Your move Tim.
You do NOT have the right to keep a job you refuse to do.
The mark of the beast is barcodes, dumbass.
Dammit, Mister Spak beat me too it. SPAK!
alright, funny joke, but those synch lines on the UPC barcodes are not actually sixes. they don't actually encode any digits whatever, they're just synch lines. they look like sixes, until you realize the UPC coding scheme doesn't work like that; digits are encoded by the widths of both lines and spaces between the lines.
you can look it up for yourselves instead of trusting random anonymous dicks on the 'net, it's not like the bar coding schema is any secret.
All that you need to consider, Dukeman, is the possibility that you are mentally incompetent, and should retire from the internet immediately.
They're not being fired for their faith or scripture, they're being fired for being hateful Pharisees! WHY IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?
Here's food for thought; Why are you so obsessed with putting your Demiurgic perversion of Christianity into secular American law?
After all, if the "J-Man" is coming "any day now", wouldn't it be better to let the country or world "Go Left" and hurry the apocalypse?
Why all this "Dominionism" jazz? Why this Hebrew Testament-like obsession with conquering the world's governments "for Jesus"?
I know why; This whole "Religious Right" thing in all it's forms for all these years is not about faith....it's about power & conquering. Religion is merely a pretext. The leaders probably don't really believe that Bible stuff at all.
Same holds for Frums of all faiths. Religion, faith, spirituality, morals, ethics, etc. have zilch to do with it. It's just a power trip.
I have not seen anyone wear items or tattoos saying "LGBT Ally", and that includes the straight people who attend Gender-Sexuality Alliance meetings.
For all the people worried about RFID implants: You can buy RFID scanners off the internet, and scan yourself. If you test positive, use your scanner to check for materials that block a scan. You can even reset an RFID tag remotely. RFID scanners are cheap enough that you can buy a short-range one for less than $30, so just buy yourself one now and save yourself all the time you would have spent worrying later. If the value you place on your time is close to the minimum wage, you only need to save yourself about 4 hours of worrying to make a profit!

THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED! In Iran or Saudi Arabia, sure, but in the USA? HAS. NEVER. HAPPENED.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
