You don't think the generalizations against women were scary?

Not really. A lot of people have weird views. Based on this Google can't hire any conservative Christians either.

I just don't think this should be a firing offense.

They can hire Christians as long as the hires are intelligent enough to realize that (for example) leaving Chick Tracts on their coworkers' desks is probably not acceptable workplace behavior.

Plenty of Google employees are christians and none of them have been fired for it (it's legally protected, for one thing)
