A judge in England on Tuesday ruled a school chaplain’s firing for challenging LGBT ideology was “unsafe” due to anti-Christian bias of a member of the employment tribunal that had dismissed his appeal, according to an advocacy group.
Trent College in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, in June 2019 fired the Rev. Bernard Randall for a sermon in which he told students it was reasonable to both question and debate LGBT ideology. The message came after the college invited the gender identity activist group known as Educate and Celebrate (E&C) to “smash heteronormativity,” according to a press statement by rights group Christian Concern.
At the Employment Appeal Tribunal on Tuesday in Fetter Lane, London, Judge James Tayler ruled that Randall’s case be remitted back to the original Employment Tribunal for a full retrial and ordered Trent College to pay £20,000 ($24,457) in court costs to Randall.
