Professor sues over firing for using wrong Pronoun for "transgendered" Student
Timothy Birdnow
A philosophy professor has filed suit against Shawnee State University for firing him for refusing to call a man in a dress by "her" chosen pronoun.
Professor Nicholas Meriwether is suing the university for discriminating against his deeply held Christian beliefs. According to the article:
"The Alliance Defending Freedom, a prominent conservative judicial activist group that was designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, is assisting with the lawsuit.
The lawsuit says a student approached Meriwether after class when Meriwether responded to the student by saying, "Yes, sir†on Jan. 9,.
"In January 2018, a male student demanded that Dr. Meriwether address him as a woman because he identified as such and threatened to have Dr. Meriwether fired if he declined. To accede to these demands would have required Dr. Meriwether to communicate views regarding gender identity that he does not hold, that he does not wish to communicate, and that would contradict (and force him to violate) his sincerely held Christian beliefs,†the lawsuit says"
End excerpt.
First, the Southern Poverty Law Center is itself a hate group which designates anybody with which it disagrees as a "hate group". Bear in mind, thety declared the Family Research Council a hate group, as well as the ministry of D.James kennedy, clearly a mainstream ministry. Oh, and they they declared the Singing Nuns a hate group. Not sure why their attitude toward the professor's lawyers matter.
The good doctor tried to work out a compromise, by offering to call the student by his last name rather than use a pronoun. The student would not accept this, and in fact screamed in the Professor's face.
This is very much an assault on Christianity. Also from the article:
"The lawsuit says when the professor was being spoken to about the complaint, he was told that "Christian doctrines regarding hell are harmful,†that religion "oppresses†students and that it was the mission of higher education to "liberate†them"
End excerpt.
So-called "transgenderism" has no basis in objective science, but rather is an artificial creation of the modern Left to destroy the family and bludgeon Christianity. This professor is clearly a victim of the bullying tactics employed by modern Progressives to accomplish what they have long fantasized; destroy Christianity.
Also, methinks he (the student) doth protest too much. Why so angry? If he really IS transgendered meaning he is a woman in a man's body then he should take this in stride. That he is so jealous of "her" sexual misidentity speaks volumes. He obviously does not look like a woman, which says he doesn't take this THAT seriously or he would take more pains to look feminine (and thus avoid the whole problem). This student wants to have his cake and eat it too. In fact, I would argue his "self-identification" is purely a rebellious political statement and little more. He has no right to expect others to respect his personal quirks as representative of reality.
We must fight this.
