GM talking to unions, not Christians

Topping the business news this week are the talks between the United Auto Workers (UAW) union and the Big 3 U.S. automakers. DaimlerChrysler and Ford have left the table with completed contracts. General Motors (GM) is still talking. At least to the unions. In July, I told you about John Moranski and the complaint he filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) claiming religious discrimination by GM against him and the Christian employee group he was seeking to form. The EEOC requested mediated talks between GM and Moranski. The automaker has refused to come to the table.

You see, as a salaried employee, Moranski isn't represented by a union, and worse, as a Christian "troublemaker", he certainly isn't worth talking to. As I reported before, GM is more than happy to support employee groups trying to force the company and its employees to accept homosexuality as a normal lifestyle, even equivalent to God-ordained man-woman marriages. But perhaps that's because those views are so well aligned with union views and it's apparent that the unions drive the decisions at GM.

The details of the contracts with DaimlerChrysler and Ford haven't yet been revealed, but UAW President Ron Gettelfinger seems pretty happy. He said of both agreements: "We’re proud of the agreement and we are satisfied that it’s a good agreement that addresses the needs of our membership, active and retired, and ... it accomplishes our collective bargaining goals. "

Remember that those bargaining goals included the extension of company paid health care to include voluntary abortions. We will soon learn whether Gettlefinger's smile comes from convincing the car makers to pay for the murder of unborn humans created in the image of God.

General Motors seems more than happy to come to the table to discuss these ungodly requests with Ron Gettelfinger and his huge staff of negotiators and clerks. When will the company be willing to come to the table to talk with John Moranski and his volunteer lawyers from the Christian Law Association (www.christianlaw.org)?

Why don't you contact General Motors and encourage them to do so? You can leave them a message through their website (select the bottom option – about GM's social responsibility).

But then again, maybe U.S. automakers don't need our help. Maybe they know what they are doing. Hmmm... According to Associated Press reports, they can't figure out how to sell American cars to Americans. The market share of U.S. car makers has fallen to an all time low of 57.9 percent and, for the first time ever, Toyota is selling more cars to Americans than Chrysler.

Do you think, maybe, Detroit has lost its focus on the things that really matter?
