'He received exemplary performance reviews for 20 years'

A college in San Antonio, Texas, is being warned to resolve a fight outside of court after it fired a biology professor for teaching biology.

Otherwise, according to officials with First Liberty, they have the option, should the professor desire, to be "seeking redress in federal court" against the "responsible parties."

The letter from First Liberty went to St. Philip’s College in San Antonio, Texas, on behalf of Johnson Varkey, a former adjunct professor.

It demands his reinstatement to the San Antonio public community college, which "fired him for teaching standard principles about human biology and reproduction."

"It is preposterous that, after teaching for more than 20 years, St. Philips would fire Dr. Varkey for teaching basic, widely accepted biology," explained Keisha Russell, counsel for First Liberty Institute.

"Dr. Varkey received exemplary performance reviews for twenty years, teaching fact-based, widely accepted science. But now that cultural elites are at odds with these ideas, the school no longer supports professors who teach them. The college violated Dr. Varkey’s constitutional and statutory rights when it fired him, and it must reinstate him immediately."

The legal team explained Varkey has taught Human Anatomy and Physiology to more than 1,500 students since 2003.

The fight erupted last November when Varkey's students walked out of his class when he explained, consistent with science, that sex was determined by chromosomes X and Y.

Of course.

Science is now religion?

Science is now religion?

Their religion is their science.

SUE!
Wrongful termination!
They didn't follow their own procedures for addressing grievances, for starters.

(Wanna bet Blackrock or the WEF ties into the college's donors?)

This is getting goofy. The prof was fired for teaching the truth. A man can put on makeup, call himself Susie. A woman can get a butch hair cut and call herself Mortimer. They can have surgeries out the wazoo.

But they can't change their chromosomes.

I bet when they signed up it was for Bi-ology, and not Bi(o)ology.

Merged threads.
