Not only applicable to IT. I'm in a non-IT engineering environment and love it. There are times when the story line could be taken right out of my workspace.

Acts 5:17-21

Then perhaps you should consider this passage from Acts 5:17-21: 17 Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. 18 They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail. 19 But during the night an angel of the Lord...

Technically, you may be correct about the re-applying, but he felt his 1A rights were being violated and the lower courts ruled against him. He had no reason to believe he would be rehired. Now that the SC has ruled in his favor, he can reapply. His reasons for not doing so are his own and...

Not true. It was recommended by the head coach not to rehire him, which is pretty much a job killer. Then the lawsuit was filed. The job postings for the next season don't open for a while after the season, possibly not until the spring for fall sports. He can't apply if there is no posted...

And you would be incorrect. This is not why Coach Joe's contract was not renewed, or any of the incidents cited by the School District in the court case.

Only in the theater of your mind, not by definition.

His contract was not renewed for contacting the media. LOL. This is fresh coming from an atheist. Is what Jesus says about judging others good enough for you, too? Or are you just selective in your agreement with him when it suits you?

What you seem to be missing is that his actions were his own and other's participation was voluntary on their part. "Inclusiveness" does not apply to personal voluntary actions. So you are in favor of suppressing private beliefs in public? How does that work in a fair and "inclusive" manner...

I am serious. Ever been in a crowded place? The "crowd" generally doesn't care what an individual is doing. Bowing one's head or kneeling in prayer is not a "spectacle", no matter how much you want to re-define that word. Having a "private moment" doesn't necessarily mean one has to be all...

True, evidence is severely lacking for that claim of influencing playing time. Coach Joe was an assistant coach (not the head coach) who also coached JV (or at least was present there, as evidenced by the case claim of praying on Monday, October 26. Mondays are typically JV games, not...

Is that all the facts? Or just snippets of a poster who can't even use the actual SC case to back him up. Let me know if you have any actual facts yourself to bring up. Otherwise, we're done.

It would be helpful if you at least put a page number on the quote mining you did from your link. Maybe put some ellipses in to show it's not all one continuous quote. Your quotes aren't even from the SC case. The first 2 words of this thread indicate we are talking about the SC case. So...

Why does having people around make a difference. It was his time, and the SC and the School District acknowledged that. You admitted things go on after a game. Some of those things include coaches talking to fans and family. They have a right to do that, correct? That's not part of their...

And, again, you are incorrect. A post about the general state of our culture and has no mention of the specific case does not mean it directly relates to that case. Only you made that (mis)connection and are putting your (misguided) twist on said post. Yes, you have demonstrated your...
