"Christian sues county after being fired for refusing to perform same-sex ‘wedding’"
lifesitenews.com
"Last year, a county clerk in Kentucky was jailed for refusing to issue homosexual marriage licenses. Now a county clerk in Florida is fighting a similar battle.
Broward County Clerk Yanicka Parker was fired for asking her boss to have someone else in the clerk's office issue a marriage license to gays. Parker explained to Clerk of Courts Howard Forman that as a Christian and a minister she could not condone sodomy because of her sincerely held beliefs.
As soon as she received an interdepartmental email stating all employees must perform wedding vows and issue licenses for homosexuals, Parker requested an accommodation. She also asked to be transferred or reassigned to a department that did not require officiating homosexual unions.
When a statewide ban on homosexual marriage was rescinded on January 6, 2015, she again asked that someone else in the large Broward County Clerk's Office perform those duties, which constitute only a fraction of her work.
Even though several other clerks were available to issue gay marriage licenses, Parker was summarily suspended and sent home on leave.
On Wednesday, January 7, 2015, the same thing happened. After she asked that others perform a ceremony for gays, she was suspended from her job and sent home.
The following Monday, the 12-year veteran of the clerk's office was fired.
Without a job, Parker eventually lost her home. She is now suing Forman and the county for lost wages and attorney fees, emotional harm, mental anguish, stress, anxiety, and diminished reputation or stature."
