Is this fair?

(October 18, 2013 at 3:08 pm)Hughsie Wrote: I heard an account recently of a Christian photographer somewhere in America who was contacted by a homosexual organisation to cover an event they were holding (I'm not sure what the event was but it was something benign I think). After realising he had been contacted by a homosexual organisation (and one that was supportive of gay rights) he refused the job on moral grounds because of their views on homosexuality.

He is now facing a discrimination lawsuit for his actions.

What is anyone's view of this, and where does your opinion stem from?

I think a person should have the right to refuse working for someone for whatever reasons he may choose - doesn't matter if he has refused gays or refused blacks.
