Christians take 'beliefs' fight to European Court of Human Rights (BBC) {religion and GLBT}

Four British Christians who claim they lost their jobs as a result of discrimination against their beliefs are taking their cases to the European Court of Human Rights.

They include an airline worker stopped from wearing a cross and a registrar who did not want to marry gay couples.

All four lost separate employment tribunals relating to their beliefs.

Secular critics have said a ruling in favour of the group could "seriously undermine" UK equality law.

A ruling is not expected from the European court for several weeks.

So ... the "right to your religious beliefs" means "the right to put those beliefs on display, even when you're representing your company"? First I've heard of it.

Screw the registrar, if that even needs to be said. If your religious beliefs interfere with filling the responsibilities of your position, you have no business holding that position.
