Homosexual Teachers ought not be hired as teachers

My response to your points:"we are justified in refusing work to those that we choose"This is true if you are refusing work based on lack of job suitability, not discrimination. It seems you have vastly misunderstood the concept of freedom of hiring. Yes you can refuse work to people, but it can't be based on discriminative terms. This is against the law. (1)" schools don't have to hire those they don't want to hire"Any evidence? Any sources? You haven't shown me anything to back up your false claim. See my answer for the last quote." the principal was in charge of hiring staff." , "as long as he is principal, he chooses who gets hired or doesn't get hired."Again, it seems like you have vastly misundestood the hiring process. You can't hire discriminatively, and even though the principal is in charge of hiring, doesn't mean that he or she can do it wrong. For example, just because a dictator is in charge of a country doesn't make it legal to subject his subjects to genocide."man up"Lets try to avoid sexist terms shall we!?"why do I have to respond to this? "No one said you had to, but as I explained; your point wasn't entirely true so I couldn't rebut it, but your point was untrue though in certain circumstances; and I just wanted to point that out to the voters. Situation One: in competition for one teaching role, a heterosexual teacher and a homosexual teacher are at equal merit and skill as a teacher. How are we to decide who is better if, in a professional sense, they are of equal talent and merit? There is no other way to decide except for personal belief. So unless you'd rather not hire anyone at all, there's not a reason to reject one off of their personality if they are of equal merit In a situation where both applicants are of equal merit, further interviews should be carried out until the best candidate is chosen. It's impossible that two candidates will have the exact same merit. Personal beleifs on the applicant's sexuality shouldn't ever come into account when hiring.Situation Two: in competition for one teaching role, a heterosexual teacher of greater merit and talent is competing against a homosexual teacher of lesser merit and talent. If what you believe is true, then I would have to hire the teacher STRICTLY because she is homosexual, or risk the cry of sexual discrimination in the job place, which wuldn't be good for me as the principal. But if I were to hire the homosexual teacher, I risk a reverse sexual discrimination charge, basically that I hired her STRICTLY because she was homosexual, which still wouldn't be good for me. Who's going to accuse you of sexual orientation discrimination? Details of the applicants for a job are kept discrete, so unless the applicant themself believes you have discriminated, you have no problem. If the applicant does have a problem the case will be reviewed by a judge, and then an unbiasd decision is made. Apart from the one applicant, no one can accuse you of sexual discrimination!"If what you believe is true"Please be more specific when reffering to my argument.Situation 3: Like I previously said, no one can really accuse you as details are kept discrete.In conclusion, Con should take a logical approach when creating scenarios, be more specific when reffering, and avoid sexist terms which may offend the competitiors!1. http://www.emplaw.co.uk...
