They will get sued by the employees. Not sure if they will win or not, depends on employment law in that state.
Florida is a work at will state, which means an employee can be fired for any reason except for federally protect ones. That means those protected employees are fired anyway but given a bogus reason. the employer is also not obligated to give a reason to the employee.

Yeah… that’s NOT what separation of Church and State means. It means the State cannot impose a religion. It does NOT mean that the State cannot impose laws on religions.
Not quite...
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

So? The courts have long ruled that there are limits on that "free expression". To use the absurdly ridiculous example, if some religion came along that wanted to perform human sacrifice, the laws against killing still would apply. No amount of "free expression" argument would be accepted.
There are many other laws that "free expression" will not be enough for a religion to avoid. Limited exemptions have been carved out, but in general religions have to observe all laws that apply to everyone else.

Florida is a 'Florida' state.

but that does't allow for discrimination and saying that fired teachers were discriminated against because of their 'views' might be reasonable.
