I admit,Dave is very outspoken,however,asyou said,Dave calls a number of people stupid.ive was raised in a church that YOU'D better do what they said or else: they didnt teach or believe in compassion: i will say Dave should have gotten some sort aid or help for the young woman instead of it hitting the media,very bad press.i dont know all the facts though: i can relate in a way because of how i was reared in the church.
That doesn't make it right. I watch Dave's show and follow his financial advice but I cringe every time he calls someone stupid. It's not okay and that is actually "classless". People get desensitized by people's celebrity status. It's wrong for Dave to do it just as it is for anyone else. He fires her for her sin but turns around and sins by cussing. His firing her and canceling her insurance is just as bad as her having pre marital sex. The hypocrisy is incredible. He's gonna lose this one.
You're projecting your own bias into the situation. You weren't raised in "the church." You were raised by people, who are sinners. Your one congregation may not have been doing it right. But if you read the bible, all kinds of congregations had their own problems. This is nothing new. You're literally blaming God for the actions of people in your one congregation. Doesn't sound very compassionate to me, but it does sound hypocritical. I would invite you to try again. You can always go back to Christ as long as you draw breath. @@victortaylor7737
Funny I agree. However that is one thing that I really like about the Dave Ramsey Show. People call and give specific number about their financial situations. If they don't give those numbers, Dave will ask. No harm, it's all anonymous.
Well he certainly isn't commanding that his employees abstain from eating shell fish or, I don't know, own slaves. He's cherry picking parts of the Bible that oppress women.

@@44fastgun wait, so youre going to dismiss the the old testament commandments as if God hmself didnt speciically command them hmself? When do you think god became more moral than his behavior in the OT? Keep in mind that according to Christians, Jesus himself commanded the atrocities and disgusting law in the OT, because he is the creator god.
@@EDUAROSOLAS You didn't hear me dismiss anything. The Old testament laws were valid and established to prepare for the Messiah, whose presence would begin a new covenant. The OT itself foretells the expiration of that dispensation (Jeremiah 31: 31-34, Ezekiel 36: 24-28). I do not see where God was any less Holy than He's always been. The only real OT atrocity I see is wicked human beings rebelling and despising their creator after He revealed to them their best path to eternal existence. If you are trying to suggest slavery as "God's huge mistake", then you would be the one guilty of dismissing the OT. The whole system reveals itself in Exodus to resemble what in modern times is called indentured servanthood; it was a voluntary, temporary path to land-ownership for the poor, with strict laws against abuse, and provisions for voluntary permanence due to many servants developing favorable relationships with their employer. Compare that to the secular welfare disaster of today that panders to poor folks until election day, gives little incentive to work,, then leaves them with a mere grocery check for the rest of their lives. I think you got the OT confused with the humanisticly-developed secular Euro-colonial slavery system, which was involuntary, abusive, and violated every precept that was the OT social structure.
They didn't terminate her because she got pregnant. She was fired for having pre-marital sex. I've interviewed for Ramsey's company and they are very clear at the beginning what their expectations for employees are. I personally had issues with it and chose not to work there. This lady could have done the same.
Agreed, sometimes 'cultural Catholics' or 'cafeteria Catholics' they moan about their church's teachings, but then work at a Catholic school, or work for the church and then moan about a moral teaching of theirs, it's crazy, have personal integrity.

@@bmjr96 I've never understood why employees think we're supposed to discuss other people's HR or personal issues in the open.

Once that employee takes it public, however, those in charge may speak on it publicly. Until then, I really don't think anyone wants there problems discussed with other employees or the public.
Hogan got fired only AFTER his wife pushed Dave who stood still defending Hogan so she went public, not when Dave found out about his infidelities. Why is it different for a Ramsey male star and not a junior female employee?
She didnt get kicked out a church group. She got terminated from her career.. Its illegal and Ramsey already had to pay out a lesbian he fired before this.

Ramsey is so hard headed that he refuses to change his teachings even when it's been shown multiple times he can't do math. So the likelihood of him changing a stupid policy he has is pretty slim. The man's a half-wit charlatan but he will stick to his own backwards rules any day of the week.

I feel bad for the lady, and yet it is no secret that Dave Ramsey owns a particular brand that he is inherently obligated to protect; not just for him but all of his employees as well. If you don't practice what you preach, literally, your credibility can be called into question and devalue what you stand for.
I don't think Dave Ramsey is following biblical principles when he fires a woman and cuts off her insurance at the most vulnerable time of her life. We don't even know if the father is going to stand by her and the child. Speaking of the child, he or she is completely innocent, and Dave just made it much more likely that the child will be born into poverty.

She signed an employment contract, violated that contract and was fired. She wasn't discriminated against for pregnancy, she was fired for violation of the morals clause in her employment contract. Same thing happened to Chris Hogan. Dave Ramsey calls his entire audience stupid, his callers stupid, and himself stupid on a regular basis. You don't go work for an extremely stringent religious company unless you agree with and will abide by their rules. Playing dumb doesn't help your case... just makes you look stupid.
And how pathetic do you look for defending your dear friend Dave for wanting to control an employee while she is away from work. Who watches over Dave when he is away fron work? Ready for the big response ? Here it is.___________________________________________________________________ No one.
Dave Ramsey can argue that the woman got fired for violating company policy that she agreed to. However, when there's a conflict between company policy vs. federal law, federal law always takes precedent. What will probably happen is the woman won't be hired back but may get some maternity leave compensation since federal law states that a woman has a right to it.
@@Vandicoup She wasn't fired for getting pregnant. They just found out she violated the morality clause because in order to get pregnant, she had to have violated the morality clause.
@@Bugsy0333 "wanting to control an employee while she is away from work" Companies do this all the time.

@@johnbobbillyshow1433 so if a private company would hire people for being Muslim or gay that would be okay? Or would the labor board intervene?? Same difference
@@Gumby6583 Up to the company. they look at expertise. Hiring someone just because they are gay, Asian, black, white, doesn't mean they know, understand or can do the job. Companies hire based on what they need not what other people want. Its a private company, they can do whatever they want.
@@techdiyer5290 so if I have a “private company” I can do whatever I want? I can just dump toxins anywhere? I can abuse my workers? Is that what you are saying???
I'm not in favor of government saying who anyone has to hire, and who they cannot fire. It's not a "free country" if government has this kind of control, even if for a good cause.
Actually an employer cannot make they're own rules, they must follow federal law with regard to employment discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, marital and familial status, disability and other things.
Right, so if an employer decides all female employees must show up to work naked, they aren't violating any laws. Great logic there, cowboy. There's a reason we have workplace rules, regs, and guidelines so people like you can't make their own stupid ones.
@@tryingtowalkthepath683One can be discriminated based upon ethnicity, age, sex, or disability. However, one cannot be discriminated "based on premarital sex."
Aww, somebody called her "stupid" and even "classless" what a tragedy. Well she is probably both. Oh no. She will now sue me. If you have your own company you should be able to close your business on Sundays if you choose and also be able to hold your employees to a desired standard as long as it is clear and stated ahead of time. I bet she accepted the standards and now she wants to change the rules to suit her needs.
So, let me get this straight. She knew who she was working for and was surprised and broken when he acted n the way he is publicly known to be? I guess accountability is a one way street.
Thats her personal life, a company has no business in that. If shes a good employee should be their only concern. Dave Ramsey does give some good advice on other topics. I hope she does win her lawsuit.
As an employer, you're bound by certain laws regardless of whether you're a private company or publicly held company. Like it or not, and illegal firing is an illegal firing. I think he's going to lose this case. Besides, doesn't Jesus preach that we should turn the other cheek? The whole point of the New Testament was about forgiveness, so she's even got a good argument using Dave's own religious principles. Matthew 18:21-22 21Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" 22Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
@@DrKnowsMoresure he can forgive her. But that doesn’t mean he has to continue keeping her on the payroll. Forgiveness and consequences for your actions are two separate things.

FACTS! I was thinking, perplexedly so, the very same thing! He has a double tongue or is himself a double edged sword! How does that speech work with biblical principles?

The problem Dave will run into is the picking and choosing of who has to follow the rules. Chris Hogan was allowed to keep his job after multiple affairs if he took counseling. He had a book coming out that would make a lot of money for Dave so he was allowed to stay much longer.
Not sure, but Chris probably had to meet some terms of his contracts and book signing obligations. Also Hogan made a video that was emailed to customers, I don’t think she had to make a public statement. Both were handled differently as they held different positions.
@@mike-kh8bu whether that's the case or not they don't have to necessarily apply it evenly.... they can apply it as they see fit. Just like speeding is illegal and police pick and choose who to pull over even though they probably saw 100 other people speeding before they chose you...
Having a boss tell everyone in the company that a certain employee is stupid happens more than you think. We have one annual group meeting where I work and this year the owner announced someone just quit and then he said a few less than positive comments about that person
Dude, the "christian" company I had worked for gossiped and maligned just about every non-family person that left the company. I would never work at a private "christian" company again. Quite frankly, I don't even know what "christian" means anymore as at 5 least different religions claim it, and often the principles are for everybody else...not ownership, family, or management.
Yeah, but when churches are donating millions of dollars to a Christian company, you can’t defend that company by pointing out that other worldly organizations do the same thing. The church and Christian companies are supposed to be called to a higher level of ethics.
Not really a Dave Ramsey fan, but if he has a set of guidelines to work at his company, and you don’t agree with them… then why work there? And why be stupid enough to get mad when he fires you for breaking them? Because he called you classless? It’s not exactly classy to get pregnant before you get married. This generation needs to wake up. You live with the consequences of the choices you make. Own it and move on. Don’t blame others
@@alexiswaddle4777 So you don’t think an employer should be able to lay out a list of guidelines that and employee agrees to in order to receive employment there, and then terminate that employee when he/she violates them? She was terminated because she was pregnant or got pregnant, she was terminated because she wasn’t following the guidelines her employer laid out. Why is that so difficult for people to see? Everyone wants to look at the effect and not the cause. Getting so fixated on the fruit rather than seeing the root of the issue

States have lots of statutes and Tennessee no doubt does too. The common law doctrine, though, is employment at will. That is, either party can terminate for any reason, or no reason at all.

"It's his company. He can run it the way he wants." I can't tell you how much that mentality infuriates me. So a company can just break discrimination laws? Human Rights laws? Wage laws? After all, it's a private business, and a business owner can break whatever laws they see fit, right? Now I know why Corporate America has become tyrannical and bloated. People condone their behavior and allow them to have complete control over their employees' lives (including their bodies~vax mandate comes to mind). Then the same people who have the mentality of "private business can do whatever they want" complain that "no one wants to work" while waiting ten minutes at the drive-thru for a burger and fries.

Paying debts smallest to largest with no regard for interest rate can make sense but it depends on the situation. Getting people out of debt and then refusing to tell them how smart it is to use debt once they are better equipped to handle it is irresponsible. His advice is to just never take on any debt except a mortgage again after you're out. That's preposterous. Of course one should use credit cards and pay them back every month to take advantage of perks and increase one's credit worthiness. But he advises against it. He's leaving money on the table.

That's a cliche and harmful. People should follow him who don't agree. They should challenge him. They should point out his mistakes so those who he's harming with his advice have other sources of information. People who follow his teachings blindly need to see his failings and where both his methods and his character fall short. And finally yes, his point of view and advice are simple. In fact they are too simple and that's part of the problem.
He wants certain people working for him, it is what it is. Why was she terrified about losing her job? She knew 100% that is why. This is not surprising based on things he has said on his show.
This is exactly WHY there are so many abortions. She could have secretively aborted the baby and kept her job. Jesus stooped and wrote in the sand... probably the 10 commandments some scholars say? "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

All of the men in his company can have all of the premarital sex in the world and he would never know. This woman could have had invitro, her birth control failed or just wanted to have a child without marriage. But to take away her source of income and benefits is cold. DR you will see this day again. To much that is given, much is required. And remember, Mary wasn't married.
Because Mary was made pregnant by God, and carried the son of God, and the savior of the world. Totally diffrent. It's true Dave wouldn't know 100% if his male unmarried employees are sleeping around, unless clear evidence emerges and given that they can't get pregnant as proof is also another factor, but the women they do impregnate can also come forward with strong evidence they got pregnant by them, but of course there can also be many women in his company that do not get caught having premarital sex because they simply did not get pregnant, unless they have other evidence. As a woman working for a christian company if you know you are already breaching agreement by having premarital sex, and then you get pregnant then of course the evidence is there, and you knew there was a risk of obvious evidence being seen. Woman can get pregant and if they do before marriage they took that risk. I think DR holds unmarried men just as accountable if he find out they were having sex out of marriage, even if they can't pregnant. Evidence is evidence. Now if she wanted a child for her self without being married, she could adopt, or have artificial insemination from a sperm donor or invetro fertilization, I dont think God wants you to have premarital sex just cause you want to raise a kid on your own.
I mean, if you want to work for a company, you have to follow their rules. If you don't like it, then start your own company. Granted I thinks it's a dumb policy, but I highly doubt these principles were not made clear to her when she started.
The problem Dave will run into is the picking and choosing of who has to follow the rules. Chris Hogan was allowed to keep his job after multiple affairs if he took counseling. He had a book coming out that would make a lot of money for Dave so he was allowed to stay much longer. Dave Ramsey can argue that the woman got fired for violating company policy that she agreed to. However, when there's a conflict between company policy vs. federal law, federal law always takes precedent. What will probably happen is the woman won't be hired back but may get some maternity leave compensation since federal law states that a woman has a right to it. I listen to Dave's show and went through Financial Peace University. I would say I'm "Davish" in re to what I learned in the class, and I have a lot of respect for him. But if Federal Law says you can't fire a person for being pregnant then he may wind up losing this lawsuit. On the other hand it is his business and should be able to run it his way. He already lost an $80,000 lawsuit for firing someone because they're gay. He has this and one other lawsuit pending.
@@Vandicoup I agree completely. The Chris Hogan thing is a blatant double standard by Dave. I agree with Dave's money and leadership principles but this is simply not the right way of handling things.
@@EDUAROSOLAS if a company did discriminate against black people 1. why would a black person want to work for that racist company? 2. The company would fail if people had an issue with its policy. So it’s perfectly fine to run your company how you want. If the public dislikes it then your company won’t do well.
@@andrewbeck9675 Jesus christ. You just set America back 200 years. We've already tried that in this country, and thank God it's now illegal to discriminate.
He talks to EVERYONE this way! Callers, on stage, every one. She isn't special. This is what makes him Dave. The firing isn't because she pregnant, it's because she isn't married. If she were married, and pregnant she wouldn't be on thus situation
I think it’s ok for her to be fired for premarital seggs as long as it was contractual. She definitely has a defamation case for publicly calling her stupid.
Dig deeper, she is not the only person who has been fired, just the first to stand up to him. She was fired for premarital sex not pregnancy. If so how do they monitor the sexual activities of the employees? We will see how this plays out. There is a YT video that covers legality and he did not handle a male employee in the same way.
Probably because firing for pregnancy is against federal law apparently whereas firing for stepping out of the moral code agreement might not be illegal. If she is naturally pregnant (not in vitro) and is not married, then the pregnancy proves she had premarital sex.
@@powers6253 Did she say how she got pregnant? What if she was raped? There is no law that says a woman must go to Police. It is difficult to prove date rape, and not every woman wants to go to court.
@@georgewagner7787 and then there’s the actual law. Doesn’t matter what you believe in you’re literally not allowed to discriminate against employees. Wonder why people don’t want to follow religion it’s people like you.
People need to cut it out. You don't get to discriminate against people because they are pregnant. As for being a listener of his, once you figure out who he is, its on you whether you continue to listen.

It IS stupid to go somewhere you don’t agree with there values. Not “GROSSLY” inappropriate. It IS “GROSSLY” inappropriate to fire this lady because she’s pregnant out of wedlock.
So no one speaks on the fact that it was with a coworker 🤔 😕 is that "grossly inappropriate" as well a conflict of interest? Especially if one holds a position of power within said company?
The basis of his business is biblical teaching on life and finances. He falls more in the category of missions. It’s no surprise he would have tight rules on employee conduct at work and outside work. You directly represent the company you work for to others in the world around you. It’s very similar to working for a retailer or service business and badmouthing it publicly outside work hours.

Firing someone for sex before marriage is hardly a detriment to anyone's place of work. It's not immoral, it's discrimination. And we have actual US Labor laws to protect against that, FYI...
His teachings on money are not biblical. They are mostly helpful reasonable, but they could as well be recommended by an atheist. He himself is a Christian and he sells his courses via the churches. Plus he is a control freak.
lol he calls everyone stupid. It’s his personality. Plus when you sign on with christian companies you legally sign you agree with the values, currently walk by them and will under company. That’s how CHRISTIAN companies work. Don’t sign conduct papers if you can live by it then turn around in sue when you violated and were fired…
Even though I feel that a person's personal business is no one's business, when you apply for a position at a company that have rules about your personal life and accept the position then you agree to the rules. Like it or not, it's a contract! She broke the contract. She's just being a crybaby now.
Abortion mills thank you and Dave, I'm sure. Some sins are more obvious than others. Can we detect and punish lust? Greed? Covetousness? Christians should HELP unwed mothers not make it difficult to keep and raise their baby. SMH.
what you do in your personal life can affect the company you work for. she signed a contract. if she thought she couldn't live up to that standard, she shoudln't have signed it
@@tryingtowalkthepath683 How do you know anything about her circumstances? My point is...if you want abortion to cease, then help women when they need help. Certainly, don't fire them!
@@tryingtowalkthepath683 How do you know she wasn't raped? It happens. Even with a Christian man whom you TRUST. The Christian response to a single pregnant woman should be compassion. Not causing her to lose her means of employment. If Christians do not step up and embrace the life God is growing inside this woman, then EXPECT the abortion industry to continue. And, sorry, although I love Dave, I think he is an absolute bonehead for firing this young lady. Jesus is not kicking her out of the church, right?!?
Even if it is in condition of employment. Is it lawful? Can you dismiss someone because they are pregnant in America? Should employment condition be abide by the law?
@Prey R i think thats what happened too. As a christian company if they dont hold people accountable, they arent representing a christian company. Maybe they were willing to give her another chance, but the fact that she didnt see her past choice as problamatic working for a christian company is where they couldnt keep her on. Its one thing to make a mistake, but not owning up to it when you know it breached the core values is another as well.
@@redclayscholar620 ...what if you are married to a partner of the same sex??? Think 'marriage' will slide easily over the Ramsey human resource department unnoticed to gay married persons?
Because Dave, like most Christians, cherry picks what's good and tosses the rest. So yes, his biblical principles. Really not as hard to understand as you're making it seem.
@@johndoe-ii1ko - I'm unaware of adultery being acceptable in any sect of Christianity? I'm guessing he should abandon this core belief simply bc he eats pork? Oh brother!
@@MikeThePike316 what about slavery, not eating shellfish, or wearing certain fabrics as described and promoted in the bible? Think Dave cares about those principles? Yeah, that's what I thought. Again cherry pick what is cute and fuzzy, but ignore the dumb and ignorant parts. Cool, I'm sure God likes his book being watered down to what makes you tickle on the inside.
@@johndoe-ii1ko - So, you're cherry picking the Bible by focusing on the old testament? Kind of a weak argument considering that most of Christianity follows the new testament and abide by the ten commandments. Your gripe is with Christianity, not Dave for being a believer/follower.
These are not secret recordings. He says this on his podcast. Media trying to twist this and make her a victim. He calls himself stupid when he does stupid things. It’s not “his” biblical values, it’s biblical values. People acting like their feelings are hurt so they can sue. It is classless AND stupid.
When you sign the contract for the job you have to live according to the rules. You can get fired if your boss doesn't like your facebook post. Most religious organizations will fire you for moral failures. What the report mis interprets is she didn't get fired for being pregnant she got fired for moral failure according to her workplace guidelines.
This isn’t a Dave principle. He’s following Gods principles. She knew this when she voluntarily agreed to a contract to work there. She will lose and she should
