A Catholic software engineer was fired by his former employer for putting “Assigned by God” as his “preferred pronouns,” an act which was precedented by pressure from the company to display “gender identity” in the name of “inclusion.”
Chad Scharf, who used to work as the vice president for software engineering at the password management company Bitwarden, lost his job for refusing to violate his religious beliefs by endorsing gender ideology, according to a lawsuit filed at the end of May.
“Ultimately, I was fired because my faith ‘may offend’ someone or could have made someone ‘feel unwelcome,’” Scharf told LifeSiteNews via email. “These are the statements used by the head of HR to complain to the CEO which reasoned that my faith was somehow harassing people through the statement of ‘assigned by God’ in the pronoun field of my Slack profile.”
“There wasn’t even an actual complaint of harassment or offense, it was purely based on virtue-signaling and speculative presumption.”
According to the complaint filed on May 25, Scharf began working for the company in 2020, one year before company-wide “inclusivity” efforts were initiated. Along with other employees, Scharf was “pressured by the company to add pronouns to his Slack profile, [and] he chose those in conformity with his religious belief: ‘Assigned by God.’”
When asked to remove the “preferred pronouns,” he refused to contradict his Catholic faith and argued “that Bitwarden’s policies and practices discriminated against his religion.” The complaint added that “Mr. Scharf was very good at his job and, until he voiced his religious beliefs, never had any issues at work.”
Beginning in March 2021 – one month after being pressured to include “preferred pronouns” in his Slack profile – the company’s human resources department asked him “to remove his pronouns [‘Assigned by God’] and informed Mr. Scharf that he could keep his faith at work but not show it.”

More evidence that LGBT is a religion that demands blind acceptance of its central tenet of approving and endorsing and spreading all things gay and trans, and while demanding tolerance for itself is unwilling to tolerate any competing belief system. Any Catholic who supports LGBT or calls for dialogue with LGBT is a Judas. You must bow before the rainbow flag or you will be sacrificed. LGBT is of the devil.
So you were supposed to say “Chad is in the cafeteria. Assigned by God ate tuna salad for lunch.”
None of God’s children are transgender. None of them are gay. There will not be transgenders nor gays in heaven because the glorified, risen human body will have been purified of all defects and defilements. Even those who mutilated their bodies on earth to resemble the opposite sex, if their eternal reward is heaven, will have their original and true bodily form restored and glorified in heaven. Nobody will be same-sex attracted in heaven.
Do you believe that there are people that are not made by God?
You might be in for a rude awakening.
I think her point is that just like there will be no alcoholics nor blind people nor people with high cholesterol in heaven, there won’t be people with homosexual or gender dysphoria maladies either. Makes sense to me. Those are all afflictions of earthly life that some people suffer.
now cisgender and cis are slurs against normal people. sue your company if it uses the c-word
ROFLMAO
“Assigned by God” is too long for a pronoun.
Maybe we could shorten it.
I think the LGB will regret — if they don’t already — adding the T.
But even so, God doesn’t like LGB or T. Know how I know? Because God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. And he didn’t aske them what their pronouns were. They had a fixed binary sexual nature.
Archbishop Sample in Portland fired his superintendent of Catholic schools and closed the whole department of Catholic schools temporarily to clean house precisely over this issue of LGBT pronoun usage. Sample is making sure Catholic schools are Catholic and not infected by any LGBT evil or falsehood. It’s war against LGBT. LGBT and Catholicism are incompatible. May the best worldview win. Hint: it’s going to be Catholicism.
It’s an injustice that men are underrepresented in women’s sports.
