Confusion

Hard to see the problem with a Christian organization having a hiring requirement that one must be a Christian to get a job.

The problems with opening up jobs in this field to those of any denomination in the name of charity occur when people are actually out in the mission field. Part of the goal of an organization like this is to comfort people with their message of, hopefully, Christ crucified for the forgiveness of sins. That’s what they see as their job.

So now put someone of a non-Christian denomination in their ranks and that role is lost, potentially leading to confusion among those the group is trying to help.

There are plenty of non-denominational charity groups people can work for that aren’t going to cause these sorts of problems. Religious groups need to be free to hire who they want free of any any burden to be inclusive. That’s not their job.
