I agree. "Homophobic" is an obvious label from the details of the story, but "fundamentalist christian" is not. It sounds to me like he didn't want the job (any job), so he had to sabotage the interview. Some of my favorite such interview stories include: * Bringing lunch and eating during the job interview * "I'm only here because my parole officer said I have to look for a job" --Matt Grimaldi
