Christian Professor Fights Back, Claims He Was Fired For Teaching Basic 'Human Biology'

A conservative legal firm is defending a college professor who claims he was fired after university leaders found his teachings too "religious." First Liberty Institute recently sent a letter to St. Philip’s College in San Antonio, Texas, telling community college officials it was illegal and improper to terminate Dr. Johnson Varkey, a former adjunct professor who taught at the institution for nearly 20 years. Calling Varkey's views on science and gender "widely accepted biology," Keisha Russell, counsel for First Liberty Institute, asked St. Philip’s College to reinstate the educator. "The college violated Dr. Varkey’s constitutional and statutory rights when it fired him, and it must reinstate him immediately," the June 20 letter proclaimed. Varkey told CBN's Faithwire the college informed him of an ethics complaint in January and terminated him just weeks later, purportedly without allowing him to learn the precise reason for his firing. Furthermore, Varkey said he had no opportunity to offer any defense. "On the 12th of January, I received an email from the vice president of the department of the school that they are doing an ethics violation investigation on me," he said. "So, I responded to his email and asked him, 'What are the complaints?'" Varkey said he was told he would hear from human resources but alleges no one contacted him until Jan. 27, when he was given a termination letter. Now, he wants his job back. Watch his story.
