Look, it's simple. If you're in a wheelchair, and you can't get a teaching job because of this, you have a right to be pissed. But if you can't get a job as an acrobat, well, that's probably because you really can't do it.
Similarly, if this guy was getting fired from a teaching job over his religion, that's wrong. But getting fired when because of his religion he can't do his job properly? No. He needs to find another job that wont' cause him spiritual pain. He's not being persecuted, despite what he thinks. He's just expected to do his job, and if he can't, he needs to find a job he can do.

He's lucky, had I been that girl, I probably would have hopped the counter and slapped him upside the head.
