If a superior give any order to one who is under him which is against that man's conscience, although he do not obey it yet he shall not be dismissed.
Francis of Assisi
If a superior give any order to one who is under him which is against that man's conscience, although he do not obey it yet he shall not be dismissed. Francis of Assisi
