Oh please. If teachers were forced to not have sex until they were married, there wouldn't be many teachers!
Attorney Cassandra Stubbs made a very good point:
“The school used her pregnancy as a marker. How do they determine if male
employees engage in premarital sex?”
As the pregnant teacher, Michelle McCusker said,
“I don’t understand how a religion that prides itself on forgiving and on valuing life could terminate me because I’m pregnant and choosing to have this baby.”

1) The school didn't use pregnancy as a marker. She went to her boss and told her she was pregnant. Its not like they walked into her classroom and saw her belly protruding and fired her.
2) Forgiveness doesn't excuse someone from having to deal with the consequences of their actions.
This isn't a case about discrimination. Its about a woman who lied to her boss to get the job, signs a contract, then gets upset because she for some reason didn't expect the school to hold up their end of the contract.
If she had a problem with the rules, she shouldn't have chosen to work at a private, Catholic school. There are plenty of public secular schools that she could teach at (I believe she is teaching at one now).
