The U.S. Supreme Court will soon hear a case involving whether churches can “discriminate” when making employment decisions about employees who are not clergy.
EXCERPT:
[Many religious groups] support the right of religious groups to hire and fire teachers who could be construed as “ministers” on grounds that would be otherwise discriminatory, whether due to race, gender and disability or other reasons. The case could affect hundreds of thousands of teachers and other employees in faith-based schools and organizations.
