If you had an employee ... a direct report ... that you knew was an active member of the klan, could you manage that employee fairly?

A situation recently arose in my job where I am managing an employee/supervisor dispute, where the Supervisor is a lesbian and the employee, a fundy christian. Their relationship soured when the employee (on her own time, with no fanfare) went chick-fil-a to eat the free meal the cfl offered in support of its anti-gay marriage position.

For perspective, I asked myself whether I could fairly manage an employee that, while I knew he/she was a klan member, didn't act on his/her beliefs at work.
