But putting the words *Temple Worthy*  in the job description means 
more than asking for followers of that faith.
As an example, I went to grade school at a Catholic School.
My first grade teacher was divorced - a taboo at that time in the 
Catholic Church.
One Sunday I saw my teacher at mass.  My mother told me that she was breaking
church rules by attending mass because divorced people were not 
allowed to attend mass.
My teacher was - in that sense - not temple worthy.
Should she  not have been allowed to  teach at my school?
