Guestyep ITS TRUE I dont know how many of you are in the UK so for those of you who dont know here is the link
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=87792 Now I am really unhappy with the way the UK is going
Fair enough the patient wasnt Christian I respect that
But for the NHS to start disciplinary proceedings against someone trying to do their job and PRACTICE what she preaches –
Christian charity offering anythign she can to help and all that
its beyond all logic
Hey Ive had someone NOT in the chuch – and they respected my faith – and understood about the Priesthood in the church
I offered this person a blessing (although I dont know why) – saying that it can only work if they believed it
Their response “I have faith in God and in your Faith in God – is that enough”
I gave a blessing of comfort – as directed and they really appreciated it.
tbh i suppose it was more like praying over them but you get the idea
So what are your opinions?

GuestYeah. I wish people could just enjoy other people’s different practice of faith, especially if they are doing something nice. On a higher level, we are all talking about expressions of love and well-wishes for each other. The mechanics might look different, but that is the theme. It’s sad that “tolerance” is so selectively applied today.

GuestThat just shows how stupid the UK can be at times! (I am British so can say that! lol) It isn’t like the Nurse forced her beliefs on the woman who gave her a lecture on how she should repent her sins before death or anything. She ASKED her if she would like her to.
I had a lovely elderly lady once in one of the nursing homes I was working in, as me if she could pray for me when I was doing my exams. At the time I was completely atheist, but gladly accepted her offer as I was very appreciative of the concern she was showing for me. People show their “love” or care for one another in different ways. I have friends I hug, friends I give a peck on the cheek – I also have a friend who is very uncomfortable with this and so we wind each other up – but it is our way of showing our care for each other…..
I was wondering if she could sue as wouldn’t it breech the equality laws of work – ie where you don’t discriminate against religion? which they clearly have done! It would be like asking a Muslim woman to remove her hijab when treating patients to not offend non-Muslims! Its just ridiculous!

GuestYeah but lets not forget the Christian BA worker who was suspended for wearing a cross *sigh*
Ok so what next missionarries being taken to court for “forcing” their beliefs?
