Christian teachers are now under attack!

A Christian school teacher filed a federal lawsuit after getting fired for refusing to identify a transgender by their preferred pronouns.

Vivian Geraghty was reportedly fired from Jackson Memorial Middle School after she refused to violate her religious beliefs.

The result of this lawsuit may be a key court case that will serve as a precedent for future cases.

Here’s What the Post Millennial reported:

A federal lawsuit was filed Monday on behalf of a teacher who refused to violate her religious beliefs and participate in the social transition of two students who identified as transgender and wished to be referred to by new names and pronouns.

The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed a federal lawsuit Monday on behalf of an Ohio teacher who refused to violate her religious beliefs and participate in the social transition of two students who identified as transgender and wished to be referred to by new names and pronouns.

Vivian Geraghty was forced to resign from teaching English at Jackson Memorial Middle School in August after Jackson Local School District officials tried to force her to speak in a way that would violate her sincerely held religious beliefs, an action which she believes was unconstitutional.

According to an ADF press release, Geraghty’s sincerely held religious beliefs and scientific understanding are that a person is male or female based on sex, not personal identity, and participating in a student’s social transition violates those beliefs by forcing her to communicate messages she believes are untrue and harmful to the student.

The Washington Examiner dropped these details:

An Ohio middle school teacher sued her school district Monday, accusing the district of violating her First Amendment rights after she was abruptly fired for refusing to affirm students’ stated gender identity or use their preferred pronouns.

In a lawsuit filed Monday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Vivian Geraghty, a former teacher at Jackson Memorial Middle School in Massillon, Ohio, accused administrators at the school and Jackson Local Schools of violating her right to freedom of speech and free exercise of religion when they fired her earlier this year for refusing to address two students who had claimed to have new gender identities by their preferred pronouns and names.
