She’ll resurface soon having donned her martyr clothes and her “I’m-yet-another-victim-of-the-homosexual-agenda” face.

Great news! Keep an eye out, though..she’ll rally the other religious nuts and scream oppression for her religious beliefs.

Excellent news. She was way out of line, and there’s no possible excuse for it. And she knows that.

WONDERFUL news….but, Gew in post 5 was right now..a “martyr” will be born I fear. Maybe not though. Things HAVE changed, and what she did was WAY, WAY over the line, even for most fundys now

The State of TN needs to pull her teaching license as well.

Never fear. She’ll be getting one of those non-jobs shouting to the REAL Christians out there that this is a conscience issue. Christians have a right to express their “feelings” and get in anyone’s face anytime they want because God has punched their ticket. She will be guesting on all the holy talk shows to present her feelings (which are truly very old hat) to the world. Add one more to the “despicable” column.
