Man's will can’t dictate homebuyers' religion, rules Canadian judge

A Canadian judge has ruled that a man's will could not stipulate the religion of purchasers of his home, calling the move discriminatory, reports Ecumenical News International.

Thomas Allan Peach instructed in his will – drawn up more than 25 years ago – that his house be sold to an Anglican or Presbyterian and that the proceeds become part of his estate.

Peach, a single man with no children who died in April 2009, was a long-time member of St. Mary's Anglican Church in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia. A former high school teacher, he once studied for the Anglican ministry.
