Hi John, 

I believe to follow Jesus means to swim against the tide, not swim with the tide of cultural opinion.  I worked both in a Catholic Grammar School and a Catholic High School and we were all very much aware of the teachings of the Catholic Church.  If a teacher is not aware of the Church's teachings and the reason why Catholic Schools exists (after all, no one is forced to attend a Catholic School/receive a Catholic School education), naturally it is necessary for the Principal to make them aware of her teachings.    I do not understand taking a Catholic School to court because a teacher does not agree
with what Jesus Himself said about marriage.  Teachers may not agree with Jesus' teachings, but then
why work at a Catholic School or if they do, why do everything they can to hurt their employer because of their Mission Statement to hand down Jesus' teachings?
