If she is saying she was discriminated against for her religious beliefs.
sometimes the intention behind our civil rights laws can be a 2 edged sword.

I never applied for a job in my life I didn't think I could do.

Maybe I had it all wrong. I should have told them I want the job; but I don't want the work.

The law says you cannot discriminate because of religion.

She is testing the law.

I am not saying she is right.
I am not saying she should be hired.

I AM saying, from a legal perspective, that blanket laws often appear to make sense, until they are tested in cases like this and re-defined.
It is up to the courts then to see if the broad definition of the law applies in this situation.

Better hope any court that does hear the case is not a Bush appointee.

“If the law supposes that,” said Mr. Bumble,… “the law is a ass—a idiot."
from Oliver Twist

can refuse to hire is someone is unable to do the job.

Whether that refusal is religiously based or not is not at issue, imo.

If she could do the job, but wanted to wear a cross or a headscarf or get home before dark on Fridays or have specific prayer breaks during the day, then she might have a case, as long as her religion did not interfere with her ability to do the job.

IIRC, a woman recently won a case against Abercrombie and Fitch because they did not hire her because she wears a hijab. She is perfectly capable of doing the job and her dress doesn't interfere with anything in the job description. She had a case, imo.

Nice to see you, dixiegrrrrl.

She was applying for a job in a place whose purpose is to provide birth control and she says up front that she won't do it.

It's like someone with an peanut allergy applying for a job at a planters factory then saying they can't be exposed to peanuts.

That's fine, you don't get the job. But suing the employer is ludicrous, imo.

and the religious should have the protection of law is a bit of a contradiction.
