Quote from: QuietTruth on August 29, 2009, 03:47:10 PMI'm assuming your co-worker is Agnostic? So if that assumption is correct, I don't understand why a Christian would get into a relationship like that. In the first place.If they was separate religions under Christianity faith, or even somethang other than Christian but still had faith in God..that's one issue.But how could you make a relationship like this work? It's like good verse evil. Positive verse negative. Complete polar opposite. There's a big uncommon factor between them. Argue opposites attract, but damn, I'm sorry, how does that happen in a case like this?^ That's all dealing with the relationship aspect of it. I mean what if they was to get married. Marriage just goes with the whole package of religion itself. I don't know. That's between them, how they make it work.As far as the issue on her being fired...I say fair becuz its the Church's beliefs. That's the whole point of following a denomination. I understand the situation and it is kinda messed up, but, it is what it is. It's the Church's beliefs. And you wanna practice it..Now aren't you being a little judgmental with the woman's personal life, homie? And then you go as far as to compare their relationship as good vs. evil? LOL that's messed up.

A church is an organized ran and comprised of PEOPLE. See, this is my whole issue with organized religion: PEOPLE are running it. Can we all agree that PEOPLE are fuck-ups and always get shit wrong?
If this happened to be a corporation and not a church, it would be unanimous among everybody to sue the fuck out of them and get as much money as they could. But its a church so it's okay to illegally fire someone? What the fuck is wrong with y'all?
I'm disappointed in some of y'all.If this happened to be a corporation and not a church, it would be unanimous among everybody to sue the fuck out of them and get as much money as they could.

See, this is my whole issue with organized religion: PEOPLE are running it. Can we all agree that PEOPLE are fuck-ups and always get shit wrong?To all my Christian homies that posted in here, I pose these questions to you: 1) Would Jesus ask those kinds of questions to such a devout follower?-- no he wouldnt for the fact he is jesus he would fix whatever was wrong with the "believers"2) Does Jesus not love everyone, including those who do not follow him?----- Jesus loves all, jesus love me this i know, for the bible tells me so, little ones that are weak and so, they are weak but he is strongyes Jesus loves me.... yes Jesus loves me,,, yes Jesus loves me for this the bible tells me so3) Would Jesus continue to take the money of someone who he thought wasn't a follower of his?------------YES he is a jew!

Ive been involved in a settlement where we signed a sheet just like that lol. Employers have you sign those forms as a scare tactic because the average worker will not challenge it and think that they have signed over their legal rights. Our lawyer laughed at it. It holds very little weight in a settlement hearing. All you have to do is say you felt pressured to sign the sheet in order to keep your job...and thats it. Almost no employer will fight it because you can say the same thing in court and they cant prove you wrong. A small business owner might fight it because they simply dont have the money to settle out of a court. Larger companies will almost always just give in to avoid actually going to court.its a churchdoesn't matter.daygo is on point.

And yes, a church is SIMILAR to a small business...but one that probably generates more money. So they could potentially fight it, and more then likely lose. The reason small business owners fight these cases is because they simply cant afford to settle and still keep their business. Their ONLY shot is to fight the case in court and pray they win (which is ironic because praying you win in court wont work, even for the church lol). The thing is, even though the church is similar to a small business...they would more then likely handle this situation as a large corporation. Large corporations dont like the negative publicity that comes along with lawsuits, particularly those that involve unfair treatment of employees. Im sure it makes sense that a church would not want to have a lawsuit against them where a former employee is suing them for terminating her after they discovered she was marrying a non christian. That wouldnt give them a very good image in the eyes of the public.

Yes, we know people run it, but it's just the guilt of 'suing a Church'. Maybe she comes from a tight religious upbringing and her fam would be upset about it. Or maybe she herself just has the guilty conscience. She's taking away money from the same place 20% of her check was going to, her faith. Don't necessarily gotta be the Church she feels guilty taking from but maybe she feels its her faith. Call it the instilled 'fear' they put in them like Daygo believes, and hey, it works than, I don't know. Which on THAT part..I could agree with the runnings of organized religion, like ya'll say, I get that. But still..ya'll gotta understand the other side too..

I am Christian
^ Nigga, seriously, that wasn't even an argument, that was a 'just saying' type thang, hahahahaha, and if I was you, I'd be the last to talk. Cuz you don't bring no arguments to the table son. But what C-Blue said is what I'm gettin' at. Maybe it is retarded, but according to Daygo if she ain't gon sue a Church, that clearly seems like her way of thinkin'.
