Something To Think About

A controversy happening in Seattle at Kennedy Catholic High School. A male and female teachers resigned recently because they were going to marry another of the same sex. Such an uproar the local church asked the principal to take a leave of absence.

Students and parents protested the resigning of the two teachers. I am sure it meant the teachers were asked to resign. Whatever the case I am sure when the two teachers began their employment at the school they were expected to follow the doctrine of the church signing they would follow the rules of employment. This would be like any employment for any of us wherever we would work. We sign a paper that we abide by the rules of employment of the company. If we don't follow the rules then we are dismissed. No big deal right well in this instance it became one.

A lady KIRO TV News they interviewed says that the church needs to change. Yes the church, the school, students, parents, and teachers all need to change but I am sure what she meant for change isn't the same as I would say change is.

I will leave it at that for now. Whether I agree with the rules of employment at the school or not I wonder why anyone would want to work at a place where they don't agree with the policies of the employer. Would you continuing working at a place you don't agree with their policies unless you plan to change the policy. Something to think about.

It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks in this situation. We must realize that not only do we have to talk to others who are in the world about Jesus Christ there are those in the church we must do too. We can't take fore granted those setting next to us in church really know about Christ. Next step let's ask questions. Amen!
