Workplace Discrimination

also when you marry a gurl its easyer for her to try to control you through your child and divorce proceedings, you dont want certain types of men or women to have that kind of power over you no matter what gender you are

then you shouldn't be getting them pregnant in the first place, or allowing them to make you pregant.

its your bed, you have to sleep in it.

so if both partners are abusive (99% of abuse) then the child loses because it is now isolated with one abusive parent. It would be better off with both even if they are both abusive, as they can keep an eye on each other.

if the person is so bad then they should be put in a mental assylum. if they are allowed to roam free than they can't be all that bad.

the secular law is what allows divorce proceedings to destroy peoples lives, if marriage were sacrosanct, people would have to live by their choices then they would not make them so lightly.

if a parent is not fit to raise a child, then they are not fit to be in society and the mental hospital is where they belong.

divorce only benefits the lawyers.
secular law is a vampire

Jesus taught faithfulness. A child born out of marriage will be less loved, have less faith, and turn out to be a problem, more than likely.

Besides, you cannot join a tennis club if you do not play tennis.
Therefore you can't be part of the Christian club if you don't play Christian.

Why not just marry her, and thank the pastor for pointing out to you the best thing to do FOR THE CHILD.

Still, the pastor could have talked it through better tried to be more persuasive rather than autocratic. Did he try?

Also part of the teachings are accepting people with their flaws, and more.

I don't think a child born out of marriage gets less love, its just a child born into the shitty environment where one parent is a deadbeat as one of the people I dated in high school's adopted parents (long story behind him) was atheist, never "married" but you know what I've never seen such caring parents.

Besides that a marriage of the church is worthless in the courts, you can have the legal paperwork and never have had a church service.

My girlfriend has had a job working 40+ hours a week for a few years now, as the Head of a Nursery/daycare at a local church. The pastor of the church runs the whole hiring and firing process. She told him that she was pregnant, he asked if she was married, she said no, and she was immediately fired. This is discrimination right! She and I plan on speaking to my grandmother's lawyer tomorrow, she is distraught as hell because she lost her only job. There were no stipulations about this when she was hired, and nowhere is it in her contract.

The worst part is, christians are to be non judgemental and forgiving, not this cockfaced asshat of a pastor. I cannot believe the sheep that attend that silly evangelist(yeah shes one of those) cult listen to him.

That pisses me off just reading this bs. Fucked up. Id be tempted to call that dush out. Ohh if that happend to me ( not that i would want to attempt to get pregnant) id want some blood!

Take it to court.

win.

Use some of the money to set up her own Nursery/daycare.

This is discrimination.
I am not one for sueing at all but this is a matter of a persons professional job.
That is discusting but I have never for the likes of me understood religion .

Yes I think I would certainly look inot being compensated how ever that plays out.

The religions have always had too much power in my opinion and I think it sends a good message out to everyone how wicked and evil they really can be.

You see and read about the most bizarr things all done in the name sake of GOD? Yes it is a wtf!!!

This kinda stuff makes me sick, I hope you guys get an assload of money out of it

pastor doesn't know his bible..most churches don't.. and yes, the church is full of hypocrites..that's the point..the christian walk is a struggle of trying to be like christ, and the failure is what's always prominent, but grace is supposed to be there for the believer who is struggling to obtain christian perfectionism/complete sanctification. it's impossible of course, but it's the religion.

christianity is misunderstood by both the body of christ and by the general population and by the non-believers.

i'm not a believer, but i went thru my religious phase for a year..glad i'm out of it, alot happier since then..but i'm familiar w/ wesleyan theology (my denomination) so if u got questions ask me..

i realized that..life is what i want to make it..therefor, i am now hedonistic & agnostic--i feel it's what's true deep down inside

yes this is true. but discrimination is an act of judgement on behalf of the flesh, not of the spirit. the christian idea is that there are two wars going on within the indwelling of each human--that of good & evil. evil is a genetic predisposition towards commiting a will that is fallible towards god's image (sin)--this is debate in certain circles, but is a widely held theory in theology. generally, this is held to the 'bitter root' which jesus taught to do our best to cut the 'poison' at it's root before sunset (do not go to sleep on an angry heart, for if you do, it is as if you've already murdered your fellow man)... succinctly put, discrimination is not an act of christian obedience, but that of a fleshly obedience (the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak)..

as for the poster who said jesus taught faithfulness, that is partially true. he mainly taught love, for love is the pinnacle of humanity(golden rule--1 corinthians 13). faith is a gift from god in the eyes of the christian--this faith, is actually TRUST which is gained by the believer when they feel that god has answered their call/answered their prayers(and prayers are not always wants that are selfish in nature--they consist of a myriad of things, including desires, fears, hopes, etc.)

you should read of the parable of the adultress..although your wife is not an adultress, the same principle applies, as it criticizes people(like your pastor).. in the believers eyes, this whole scenario would further show them that both the body is flawed and the non-believers.

in all honesty, if the new testament was abided by by both believers and non-believers alike, this world would be an amazing place.. but science and other things have pretty much falsified the validity of the existence of the christian god to me, therefor i willfully choose not to put it in practicality(as far as worship goes)..

Buddy please no disrespect BUT I am not the least bit religiousSorry but I have to STRONGLY disagree with you here but I won't get into why.

I am a HUGE believer of GOD and I believe that god and science go hand in hand . How can they not?

Click to expand...

who said anything about disrespect was i just telling you the christian perspective, no disrespect was taken.. and i do believe science and god go somewhat hand in hand, but definitely not a monotheistic deity in the traditional jewish tradition, that's for sure. hell even philosophy takes care of him.
