A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit by two students who were engaged in same-sex marriages and were dismissed from Fuller Theological Seminary for violating the rules of behavior to which they had agreed.
According to the non-profit legal group Becket, which was representing the school, the judge found that it was "well established … that courts should refrain from trolling through a person's or institution's religious beliefs."
The case, considered a landmark that could impact students and schools nationwide, said the seminary held the right to train students for ministry according to its sincere religious beliefs, free of government entanglement.
Two students, Joanna Maxon and Nathan Brittsan, had sued Fuller for dismissing them after they agreed to follow, and then violated, the school's standards.
