Bible Question: new creation ... do you think the business owner isn't a Christian because he is rich? One time I said he is a Christian and then I said he is a wealthy man. How does this contradict? If I could take the manager to court, I would, he's the one who broke the law. I was fired for lack of sales ... that's what I was told ... but I know the difference in how I was treated after he found out I shared Christ. |
Bible Answer: joelk The following article comes from the ACLJ's web-site. Here is a brief statement by them, concerning their position on the rights of Christian workers in the workplace. ACLJ's Position "Contrary to what many liberal advocacy groups would like, there is no law requiring the workplace to be a religion-free zone. Federal and state laws protect the religious freedoms of employers and employees. Employers can run their business in conformance with godly principles, and employees cannot be forced to act in a manner that conflicts with their religious beliefs. For instance, Christian employers may hold and participate in voluntary chapel services and prayer meetings for employees, and employees can share their faith with co-workers during breaks or free time, so long as it is not disruptive. As our society becomes increasingly more secularized, the ACLJ is regularly asked to advise employers and employees about their right to express their faith in the workplace. The ACLJ is committed to defending the rights of believers in the workplace. Whether it involves the right of a pharmacist to refuse to dispense abortion pills, the right of an employer to pray with willing employees, or the right of a librarian to wear a cross necklace, the ACLJ is on the frontlines against efforts to violate the religious freedoms of believers as employees and employers." you can go to this web-page which can be located at; http://aclj.org/resources/workrts/index.asp Hope this helps you New Creature |
