The Department of Justice has been accused of religious intolerance
and viewpoint discrimination after workers were sent an email directing
them to verbally affirm homosexuality, according to a law firm
specializing in religious liberty and now representing a DOJ
whistleblower.

Liberty Counsel said DOJ employees were emailed a brochure called “LGBT Inclusion at Work: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Managers.” The
brochure was created as a resource from DOJ Pride, an association of
lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees of the DOJ.
A Department of Justice spokesperson did not return calls seeking comment. Fox News also reached out to DOJ Pride for comment – but emails were not answered.
Among the directives in the brochure is an order for workers to vocally affirm homosexuality.
“Don’t judge or remain silent,” the brochure read. “Silence will be interpreted as disapproval.”
They were also told to post “DOJ Pride” stickers in their office to indicate “that it is a safe place.”
One gay DOJ employee is quoted in the directive; “Silence seems like
disapproval. There’s still an atmosphere of LGBT issues not being
appropriate for the workplace (particularly for transgender people), or
that people who bring it up are trying to rock the boat.”
Mat Staver, founder of Liberty Counsel, said every American should be outraged by the DOJ orders.
“This administration is pushing the most radical, immoral agenda on
the American people,” Staver said. “Christians are not merely required
to ‘shut up,’ but now they are being coerced to embrace immorality that
goes against their sincerely held religious beliefs.”
Liberty Counsel is representing an unidentified female DOJ worker in Washington, D.C. who received the brochure.
Staver said the woman is terrified she might lose her job unless she
publicly affirms homosexuality – and she’s not the only one.
“Christians are frightened and terrified of losing their jobs,”
Staver told Fox News. “You just can’t keep you head down and do your
job. Now you have to become an advocate for the LGBT agenda – and if you
don’t – the DOJ will consider that to be intolerant.”

Staver said the idea that Christians who might oppose homosexuality
have to put up a pro-gay symbol in their office smacks of thought
police.
“Under this directive, one cannot be a Christian and a manager at the
Department of Justice,” he said. “How does one who believes in the
teachings of Jesus Christ and the Bible display ‘gay pride’ stickers?”
Liberty Counsel vice president Matt Barber told Fox News the DOJ has
created an extremely hostile work environment for Christians.
“This is ‘1984’ just a few decades late,” Barber said. “This is so
Orwellian. President Obama said he intended to fundamentally transform
America. That’s exactly what they are doing and they are doing it within
the Department of Justice.”
Barber said some female DOJ workers have also expressed concerns about transgender workers using their bathroom facilities.
“They (DOJ leaders) have said if you are uncomfortable with a man in a
skirt using the facilities – then tough – you need to get over it,”
Barber told Fox News.
The brochure quoted a male employee who dresses like a woman: “I want
people to understand that I’m real. I want to be recognized as the
gender I really am…Just imagine if people were constantly debating YOUR
bathroom privileges. Imagine how humiliating that would be.”
Workers were also told to use “inclusive” words like partner or
significant other – rather than traditional terms like husband or wife.
They were also told to use a transgender person’s chosen name and the
pronoun that is consistent with the person’s self-identified gender.
DOJ employees were told to stop using phrases like “gay lifestyle” or
“sexual preference” –because those words are “considered by many as
offensive.”
Barber said it was a form of sexual harassment.
“If you feel sexually harassed and complain about it – then you are
the one who could get in trouble – because you’ve violated the
transgender person’s rights,” he said.
Obama is no kings don’t like to be constrained. But all government should be.Obama is Pathological Liar, He is an Ideological Liar because the true objectives of his fundamental transformation of the United States are incompatible with American democracy and tradition Obama devotion to the Machiavellian dictum of "the ends justify the means" and lying as an instrument of government policy have been the tools of political extremists throughout history.
