I came across this story from last year:

http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2007/12/07/biologist_fired_for_beliefs_suit_says/?p1=MEWell_Pos2

It seems a postdoc's disbelief in evolution led to his firing. The strange part of this story me, is why this postdoc would want to work in a development/evolutionary biology lab in the first place. I think the PI and Woods Hole can insist on a belief in evolution when it is critical to the work being done. The judge ruling on the subsequent lawsuit agreed.
