Frank Turek

I just wanted to pass a word along because this really makes my blood boil. Christian apologist Frank Turek was fired from his job at Bank of America because he had written a book: Correct, Not Politically Correct; How Same-Sex Marriage Hurts Everyone. The blog link I was sent ended up being dead so I did some snooping and found the following:

Dr. Frank Turek was fired as a vendor for his political and religious views, even though those views were never mentioned or expressed during his work at Bank of America….

In late May of this year Dr. Turek was hired to present at a meeting of [Bank of America's] Global Business Management & Analysis Team within Global Wealth and Investment Management. The title of his presentation was called “Why Can’t You Be Normal Just Like Me?” The presentation helps participants adapt to diverse personalities to improve productivity and relationships—the essence of inclusion and diversity. The meeting was scheduled to take place at [Bank of America's] Merrill Lynch facility in Pennington, New Jersey on June 17.

Three days before the event Dr. Turek was abruptly fired by an HR representative. Why? She explained that someone Googled his name and discovered that he had written Correct, Not Politically Correct: How Same-Sex Marriage Hurts Everyone. Marriage was not the topic of his presentation, nor has it ever been in all his years of working with the bank. [source]

Shame on you Bank of America. You are anything but diverse and inclusive. The knife of tolerance slices both ways, and when you discriminate against a Christian for holding to their biblical beliefs you show favor to anti-christian sentiments and contempt for the values and teachings of the Christian Church.
