Moody Bible Institute is waging a legal battle to protect its male-only clergy policy and to prevent"government intrusion in religious affairs."
Moody is being represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, whose vice president and senior counsel Daniel Blomberg said,"If the separation of church and state means anything, it means that the federal government can’t punish a religious college for its beliefs over who should serve as a pastor, priest, imam, or rabbi. Religious groups should be free to make up their own minds on clergy qualifications without judges or juries putting a finger on the scales.
Her disagreements with Moody's religious beliefs resulted in her contract not being renewed, for which she filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint claiming discrimination and retaliation based on her religious beliefs and her sex. Moody's lawsuit says Garrick's lawsuit is an attempt to use the"federal judiciary as leverage in her doctrinal dispute."
