Good. Co-workers shouldn't have to be held hostage to random bullshit "beliefs" without sufficient backing evidence. Imagine if he claimed a "legitimate belief" that God declared him "King," and therefore all must bow before him. Fuck off with that bullshit. Your private beliefs are exactly that: private. In a shared work environment, all must accommodate an agreed upon shared set of rules, or you are excluded from that environment. Period.

wanna bet this ahole had covid and gave it to people around once or more times.
If he did, I bet he was just fine with taking other medicines for it. Heck, he probably got the vaccine, but thought he could cash in on the anti-vaxer bullshit.
hes like 3-4years too late, lol, wait til he gets the razor blade variant, i went through it last month.
unfortunately religious exemption is still a thing. the jury just decided in this case that he was bullshitting because he took a bunch of other drugs that were also against his beliefs.
Yeah, I read it. Pardon me if I believe his "beliefs" weren't believably beliefs.
I'm not asking you to believe him. the point is, in the bigger picture, it's still possible for other religious people to claim discriminaiton.
Is that not subject to a "reasonable accommodation" limit, though? It's not like anyone could actually use my "King" example, and expect it to work just because they acted as if they genuinely believed it, right?
“Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!” he shouted, and then turned to his wife and children, who were sitting in the gallery. “I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. We’ll be okay.”
Fuck around with people’s health and find out.
Dunbar testified that he was making $100,000 an episode, and was paid even for episodes in which his character did not appear.
According to imdb, there are roughly 70 episodes that ran before his firing. Even if he made half that an episode, the guy is set! No pity for the out of touch millionaire and his “religion”.
Dude made that much money on episodes, then said this:
“I’m underwater. I’ve spent my entire retirement,” he said. “This has taken my life into a hole financially that I will never be able to get out of.”
Absolutely ridiculous on his part.
"Scott Street, Dunbar’s attorney, argued that his willingness to sacrifice his job underscores the sincerity of his religious views, which he said are no less real for being outside the mainstream."
His attorney kind of screwed him here. "Sacrificed" means he willfully knew he would lose his job and chose to walk away. It proves the company isn't at fault here. He knew the consequences of his actions and proceeded anyways. That isn't the employers fault.
