Wilson Fauber, 70, of Virginia, was cited by the National Association of Realtors for being in violation of the Code of ethics prohibiting realtors from using “harassing speech, hate speech, epithets, or slurs” related to “race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity.”
The reason for the ruling stems from posts Fauber shared in 2020 reflecting his Christian views on marriage, that is between a man and woman. According to this Realtor Association, holding Christian views and sharing them publicly should result in your reputation being tarnished by incendiary charges stemming from a hatred of Christianity, nothing more.

Excerpt:
A Virginia realtor and Christian minister has been found guilty by an ethics panel after he quoted Bible verses on social media.
Wilson Fauber, 70, a longtime realtor with over four decades in the industry, was found in violation of National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) Code of Ethics, which prohibits realtors from using “harassing speech, hate speech, epithets, or slurs” related to “race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity.”
The posts in question, which were made years before the NAR’s adoption of the rule in 2020, included Fauber’s views on marriage and human sexuality according to traditional Christian teachings, attorneys said.
