A college professor is stirring up quite the controversy after getting the boot from his job for speaking his mind. Dr. Aaron Edwards found himself out of work at England’s Cliff College after making some not-so-popular remarks about homosexuality on social media. But fear not, Edwards isn’t taking this lightly. He’s filed a lawsuit with the help of Christian Legal Centre because, let’s face it, in today’s day and age, you can’t just fire someone for speaking their truth, can you?

After seven long years of service, Edwards got the ax for daring to express his views online. In his words, he believes Christians are often too afraid to speak their minds and that the Brits are extra sensitive about offending people. He’s got a point, doesn’t he? Can’t a fella just share his beliefs without getting the boot?
But hold on to your hats, because it gets even juicier. Edwards went on to claim that homosexuality was “invading the Church” and that many Christians don’t see the severity of the situation. Well, you can imagine the pushback from the LGBT community and, of course, the college itself. They called his post “unacceptable” and “inappropriate” and asked him to delete it. When he refused, they gave him the ol’ heave-ho.
Edwards is now warning his fellow Christians that they too might face a similar fate if they speak out against the progressive ideology that’s sweeping the nation. But don’t worry, he’s not backing down. He’s hoping this lawsuit will shed some much-needed light on the issue of free speech being at risk. After all, who doesn’t love a good underdog story, right? Let’s see how this all plays out.
