Creationist Biologist Says Civil Rights Violated by Employer's Insistence on Evolution
In some areas of science, accepting evolution isn't necessary to do your job. But that's not the case when your job involves studying evolution.
The Boston Globe reported last week that biologist Nathaniel Abraham is suing the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, one of the world's foremost marine research centers.
A bit more:
Only after he was hired did Abraham mention that he didn't believe in evolution and didn't want to work on evolution-related research. Hahn asked Abraham to resign. He left in December 2004.
Abraham took his case to the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination, which ruled against him in April of this year. His new lawsuit, filed in federal district court on November 30, claims violation of his rights under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and asks for $500,000 in damages.
