Ordination of homosexual priests and pastors

[Paul Rishworth]

I wonder if I could enlist the help of US members of the list on a
matter. I am seeking examples, if they exist, of provisions in state
anti-discrimination statutes which create an exemption so as to make it
plain that the statute does not apply to the ordination or subsequent
appointment and deployment of pastors, priests etc.

I would be grateful for any replies directly to me, off list.I am
hoping for the full text of the exemptions, or directions to a website
where I might find the full text. Many thanks.
