Va. Teacher Fired Over Trans Pronouns, Settles for $575K

Everlasting Life

By grace, through faith in Jesus

A former high school teacher fired for not using the pronouns of a transgender student has reached a settlement with a Virginia school board for $575,000....

....Vlaming said he could not use the student's pronouns because of his "sincerely held religious and philosophical" beliefs "that each person's sex is biologically fixed and cannot be changed." Vlaming also said he would be lying if he used the student's pronouns.

..."I loved teaching French and gracefully tried to accommodate every student in my class, but I couldn't say something that directly violated my conscience."
