The Importance of Sexual Behavior in Catholic Schools

Father Martin says Catholic schools can't fire teachers who identify as LGBT because this violates federal civil rights acts that prevent discrimination based on gender, sexual orientation or marital status.

Requiring church employees to adhere to church teaching means at a more fundamental level adhering to the gospel,. Father Martin: Should we not fire people for not helping the poor? For not being forgiving, for not being loving?"
