US Court Rules Catholic School Within Rights in Firing Pro-Abortion Teacher

School officials say that the woman was fire because she publicly opposed Church teaching...she had earlier signed her name to a newspaper advertisement supporting abortion rights.

She may not be able to teach, but she can probably receive Holy Communion without any penalty.

Anyway, she claims she was illegally fired, in part, because she is a WOMAN...I can understand that. Maybe the school officials were unaware that she is a WOMAN and only became aware of later - perhaps AFTER she signed her name to the Pro-Death ad? She claims that the MEN who do not follow Church doctrine are not penalized like she was...Well, that must be because they are MEN...The article doesn't tell us how many of them signed the same ad, however...It was probably none...But IF they had, they would not have been fired, being MEN...Is it all clear?

Praise God that there was a judge who understands the First Amendment:
Ruling that courts may not hinder the right of religious institutions to teach their own values, U.S. District Judge Kent A. Jordan dismissed Michele Curay-Cramer's case in a 20-page decision released Tuesday.

The DelawareOnline article states that she is now teaching out of state...Maybe at a Catholic school near you?
