Man says city fired him for being Mormon

A Georgia resort city fired its Mormon employee for refusing to go to Episcopal church, drink, gamble and play the "Screw Your Neighbor" card game, the man claims in court. Steele Knudson sued the City of Tybee Island, Ga., in Chatham County Superior Court. The city is the only defendant.

Tybee Island, pop. 3,000, is a barrier island 18 miles east of Savannah. It hired Knudson as a planning and zoning manager in September 2011, according to the complaint.
