In the post I didn't actually elaborate whether the organization was a company or a church. Although, given that I used it as an story to lead into a conversation about the Church as a whole, it doesn't surprise me that this is a conclusion my readers are making. I think I shall use the Church of England's policy re: possible monarchy pregnancies and neither confirm nor deny. Also, as I go on to say in a later paragraph, I came in without lipstick very shortly after the threat and was not fired. I did leave the organization soon after, as I had multiple issues with their policies. This is merely the icing on the cake. ; )

That being said, for the sake of discussion say this was a church? Should a fellow believer sue when this happens?  Or like a previous commenter suggested, is it something that should immediately suggest a cult to us? I would really be interested in hearing your thoughts!
