The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Roman Catholic school in a case involving employment discrimination allegations from an employee who was terminated after she became pregnant out of wedlock.

I respect the voicing an opinion that goes against the grain, but…
That school gets federal funds. We pay for these idiots to teach nonsense.
Contacts shouldn’t be able to violate basic freedoms. Don’t like it, work elsewhere, right?
Check the contact/waiver for your cell phone, mortgage, bank, school, employment, etc. Odds are there’s an arbitration mandate. Guess who arbitration sides with 95+% of the time. The guys who pay them.
Contacts state ridiculously evil shit. There are too many contacts to read. Organizations push for too much. We should not be able to sign away fundamental rights.
Try getting a job, cell phone, apartment, etc., without signing away basic rights. It’s only getting harder.
You spelled contract wrong four times in that comment.
Having any specific job isn’t a basic freedom. You aren’t entitled to a paycheck from anyone.
I’m not saying having a job is a freedom. What happens when every job includes a clause that says “you can’t sue us, no matter what.” Because most of the contracts that you sign already say that. Every Cellular service does. Most factories do. I work in software and pretty much every gig I’ve ever worked included something along those lines.
It’s not always enforcable, but this kind of thing inches us closer.
Sounds like a good reason to not take those contracts. If enough people find the terms to be bad and refuse them, companies ultimately have to change the terms if they want employees.
Most countries have pretty strict laws about protected characteristics that you can’t sack people over and getting pregnant is one, regardless of how it happens.
