7:41Now PlayingA college student, who was interning as a counselor, has been fired for saying that gay people should try not to be gay. Now he is suing for discrimination. Ana Kasparian and Brett Erlich, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“A former Missouri State University counseling student said he wouldn’t treat gay couples. Now he says the school discriminated against him.
A former graduate student in Missouri State University’s counseling program says he was ousted from the department after stating that he would refuse to counsel a gay couple.
Andrew Cash, a former MSU student, is suing the university for unspecified damages over what he says is a violation of his religious rights. A Christian, Cash decided to fulfill his mandatory internship course at the Christian-run Springfield Marriage and Family Institute. But Cash says when his MSU professors learned of the institute’s anti-gay marriage views in 2011, his internship was terminated, and his religious views subjected to scrutiny.
MSU told Cash that this anti-gay stance was discriminatory, and in violation of counseling ethics, the lawsuit alleges. But after Cash was removed from the counseling program a few credits shy of graduation, he claimed that he, not his hypothetical clients, was the victim of discrimination.”
