Here is the claim, quoting https://adfmedia.org/press-release/court-consider-whether-ohio-university-violated-professors-first-amendment-rights https://adfmedia.org/press-release/court-consider-whether-oh... (linked to from this article):
> Although the philosophy professor offered to use the student’s preferred first or last name, and university officials initially agreed that was an acceptable compromise, officials then changed course and forced Dr. Meriwether either to speak what he believed to be untrue or to remain silent, all contrary to his own Christian convictions and philosophical beliefs.
The argument appears to be that Meriwether does not believe the student's preferred pronoun is correct, and using it would therefore be a falsehood which violates his Christian belief.
