> Result of saying this at work: fired.

I think you’re significantly overstating the certainty here, especially if you couched that in being based on your religious beliefs. A lot of places have senior management who agree with that and most of the times I’ve seen things like that it gets no more than a reminder not to talk religion/politics at work, if even that.

The one exception is if you’re in a policy making position: if it sounds like fuel for a lawsuit arguing that women aren’t being fairly compensated or promoted, that is more likely to get attention. A lawyer I know mentioned that most of the DEI programs his firm setup were requested by CEOs specifically to protect the company from lawsuits, with the goal of being able to cut one manager loose rather than having the whole company be liable.
