Order The opinion of this court issued on August 8, 2019, is amended as follows: At the end of the paragraph that carries from page 4 to page 5 add, “Sterlinski has not contended that non-Catholics are ever hired as organists by the Parish, and we need not consider the potential bearing of that possibility.” Plaintiff-appellant filed a petition for rehearing and rehearing en banc on August 22, 2019. No judge in regular active service has requested a vote on the petition for rehearing en banc,* and all of the judges on the panel have voted to deny rehearing. The petition for rehearing is therefore DENIED. * Judge Scudder did not participate in the consideration of this petition.
