The beliefs and traditions held by our employees do not necessarily represent the opinions of this organization. However, while we do not discriminate against those of varying traditions and understandings, we admonish that our employees not contend for their theological positions or practices to the disunity of this organization. This organization’s purpose and vision is founded upon Christ’s admonishment to serve those in need. This singular vision defines our mission and is what we and our employees shall maintain and uphold to the unity of this organization’s mission.

Like I said... if it's "inter-denominational"... they shouldn't discriminate. If they only want to hire Baptists and be strictly Baptist... that's cool. But don't claim to be inter-denominational and then get all whiney and selective about it.
That's a nice statement, but where in all this are Baptists or other denominations being discriminated against? This isn't about denominational sects, it's about homosexual sex. Or what most Christians call "sin."
