I wonder how this will work out for him

More scurrilous allegations without any source - prove it.
You've called the kid anti-christrian at every available opportunity, despite knowing SFA about them. It is quite clear what your beliefs are.
Jeysus lads why are ye all responding to an 80 post troll.
It's clear ye are only being Wummed to drive traffic on the thread..
I don't need an essay, but can you give us just a chapter and verse of the Bible (and which version) that says being trans goes against Christian teachings, please?
If you cannot, may I suggest that being trans does not go against the Bible, and therefore does not go against Christian teachings.
What's the bible got to do with it? Burke happens to be some sort of evangelical Christian but he could just as easily be a Muslim or Hindu employed as a teacher in the school and objecting to being obliged to follow this new guideline. That's the principle of the matter, whether he should be obliged to follow a policy contrary to his religious beliefs.
I never claimed to know what your beliefs are-I merely pointed out that they aren't Christian.
You could be a scientologist for all I know.
They’re not “in favour of trans”. They’re treating their student, like all students, with respect and dignity.
How does teaching a trans student stop Burke from practicing his religion? What religious rule or principle requires him to do something other than teach the student with dignity and respect?
Sorry, but I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to the poster that said being trans is against Christian teachings, but they didn't want to give an essay or soundbite as to why. Christian teachings are all contained in the Bible, so it should be easy enough to tell us which version, and where to find it if they're so certain that being trans goes against Christian teachings.
Reports indicating he has been dismissed from his job.
I never shared the religious belief of my aunt, the nun who changed her name to a male saint name, but I had no difficulty in using her preferred name.
Is there some religious principle that would have stopped Burke from doing the same?
More than likely, but it passes the time.
You don’t know what the beliefs of the trans student are, but for some strange reason, you’ve decided that their beliefs are anti Christian.
Shocker.
And he's gone!
I for one really look forward to the WRC hearing.
His mam in particular is comedy gold 😉
He's been dismissed.
Tickets for the WRC hearing will sell for higher prices than Springsteen tickets.
They found John Rogers! 😂
The Christian in this instance is refusing to honour a child of God. Full stop.

The mad thing is, on procedural grounds he has quite a strong case for unfair dismissal. Particularly on natural justice issue.
But, as already alluded to in his sister's prior WRC case, the travelling circus will 100% go against any fairness he will seek to rely on.
John Rodgers does exist!
As the man with the graph on the Internet says, the more you f*ck around, the more you find out.
Delighted for Burkey and his mad family, thats two of them at least on the scratcher now.
I'm sure there's jobs for them back in the 18th Century if they need them.
But still, its worth highlighting the self-infliction of this outcome again. He's correct about the pronouns bit, it was his personal conduct around the process that followed, that got him jailed for contempt and now binned.
He has made himself unemployable for life.
What would she have done if you didn't, if you called her say just Mary, or whatever her name was.
Would it have resulted in your career being impacted and others around having to deal with the fallout. Unlikely.
I had a great-aunt also a nun. She went by both names. In the family she was referred by her original name.
John Rodgers Eunuch Burke
So that is where John Rogers is now! We found him lads!
I wonder if he turn up for work again on Monday morning.
He does not have a case of being prevented from practising his religion, he is trying to force his archaic beliefs onto others. Give me a break. That is some mental gymnastics if ever I saw them.
And Mammy photobombing.
Would/could he be re instated if WRC rules that he was unfairly dismissed?
Would/could they pay him off with whatever the WRC would award for unfair dismissal if found in his favour?
Would/could he insist on re -instatement instead of a settlement?
Will he milk this for all it's worth now and use the WRC as a publicity forum?
I'd love the school to hold its hands up, admit that ok he was unfairly dismissed but we are not putting him back there, here's the money honey and now get lost. Guess it won't work like that will it?
Wouldn't surprise me and the brother next to him still carrying the famous box..
