There are only two sides of this position where one can remain intellectually consistent.
A) You recognize that there are limits to what an employer can ask of an employee
B) You claim that an employer can discrimate for absolutely any reason they want.
If a Rastafari were in charge of a local Wal-Mart, and claimed that white people were evil in his religion, should he then be able to refuse employment to all white people simply because they're white? I mean, we wouldn't want to violate his religion now would we?
One problem - race is protected (but it still happens). Sexual activity (not orientation, but activity) is not. They are a CHRISTIAN school, and they want their employees to have certain CHRISTIAN values. It's that simple.
It has nothing to do with qualification, discrimination, or anything of the sort. They are looking for a type of person. You may as well be complaining about a law firm that won't hire someone with a law degree as a lawyer.
