Church settles suit over pastor sermon on tolerance
An Episcopal church agreed to pay 42500 to Karen Scott of Sparta after her suit alleging pastor Rev John Nieman publicly chastised parishioners who pressed for discreetness about the church choirmaster's homosexuality. The pastor named individuals from the pulpit, distressing the Scotts' 15 year old son. The case cites sermons that urged tolerance of the ex-husband's sexuality.
