Court rules against employee fired for refusing to attend LGBTQ training session
A federal appellate court rejected the appeal of a former account clerk in upstate New York who was fired from his job for refusing to attend a mandatory LGBTQ training in 2018.
Mandatory Indoctrination into Wokeness.
The plaintiff had argued that the LGBTQ training and makeup session were “aimed at changing his religious beliefs about gender and sexuality,” and that attending the training “would have caused him to violate the religious teachings to which he adheres,” according to the lawsuit. BOCES denied his request for a religious accommodation.
That is because to the extremely toxic far-alt left, being a woke/libtard is the ONLY accepted religion. All must submit!
District Court Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford dismissed Zdunksi’s lawsuit in 2022, concluding that his claims were “unsupported” and agreeing with BOCES that he was fired for refusing to attend the trainings, which BOCES had maintained were intended to help prevent discrimination in the workplace.
By discriminating again a religious person.
Crawford said in his ruling. “In sum, no facts in the record support a finding that Mr. Zdunski was terminated because of his religion; rather, the evidence in the record supports Defendants’ position that his termination was due to repeatedly refusing to attend a mandatory employee training.”
A mandatory indoctrination training program that is deliberately made to go against one’s religious beliefs.
“It just seems like the country is against the Christian way of life, and it’s for everything else,” Zdunski responded. “We’re not allowed to practice our way of life but anyone else can, it seems.”
That is So true!
“The plaintiff in this matter was terminated for insubordination after he repeatedly refused directives to attend a mandatory cultural competency training program that was designed to facilitate a safe environment for both students and staff consistent with Erie 2-Chautauqua-Cattaraugus BOCES obligations under New York State and Federal laws. We agree with the decisions of both the United States District Court and the Court of Appeals, and remain committed to fostering a safe and supportive environment for all students and staff.”
Except for the religious, and those who stand up for their belief.
Zdunski’s lawyer Kristina S. Heuser, meanwhile, maintained that her client’s rights were violated “for no other reason than his refusal to be indoctrinated with anti-biblical teaching.”
Exactly!
We are very disappointed that the Second Circuit decided the matter incorrectly,” Heuser said. “This country was founded upon and for religious freedom, but these days people of faith – particularly Christian faith – are among the most discriminated against in our nation. Mr. Zdunski sought a religious accommodation to avoid a training his employer was requiring aimed at teaching ‘cultural sensitivity’ towards transgender persons.”
“Mr. Zdunski was an account clerk,” Heuser continued. “He worked on spreadsheets in a cubicle. The training was not even remotely related to the requirements of his job. The Left will stop at nothing to force their ideology upon everyone, including stripping people of their livelihood if they do not submit to their beliefs. Mr. Zdunksi refused to violate his sincerely held religious beliefs by submitting to teaching that contradicts what Scripture teaches, which is his absolute right under prevailing federal law. The Court’s ruling was clearly erroneous and we intend to petition the United States Supreme Court to hear Mr. Zdunski’s case.”
I hope Mr. Zdunski WINS.
Afterall, we know how far left biased alot of the current judges are today.
