Just heard on radio 1 at work that British Airways employee has lost her case and is not allowed to wear her cross to work.  Absolutely bloody crazy so the main religion in this country cant wear a symbolism of its faith but muslims are allowed veils and scarfs.  How on earth do the government expect us to accept other cultures when these days were the ones victimised against.  Last year my brother was jumped by 3 asians and robbed it made about page 8 of the adver if it were the other way around and 3 white guys had jumped an asian then it would be front page news.   :nono:

good

muslim must be near enough the main religion in this country anyway.

And the reason this whole cafuffle happened was becasue she was wearing the cross out of her clothes. She was stil alowed to wear it, aslong as it was hidden. Its not that difficult. Hiding a turban on the other hand...

It is completely wrong that she was made to cover it up. But i can't be arsed to go off on one about it.

I find people wearing Christian jewelry highly offensive and BA were right to ban this.

agreed. ANY job that requires a uniform shouldn't include religious artifacts. And you shouldn't have them in schools or hospitals.

When was the last time you saw a stewardess wearing a burka?

I sometimes wear a cross, do you think they'll ban me from the CG  :o

yes.

They can try, but they would not succeed  :D

absolutely ridiculous .. anyone should be allowed to wear any item they like even more so if its religious .. what ever happened to this being a free country?

My opinion is they can wear what they like providing it doesn't impede their ability to do the job, which I think is why the muslim veil debate has arisen primarily, you wouldn't dream of telling a sikh they couldn't wear a turban for an office job and rightly so, it might only be an issue if it beacme a health and safety risk.

I'd have more sympathy for this bird if she wasn't just stiring up trouble. She's been happily complying with the rules which BA have had in place for 13 years. Then decides to do this around the same time the whole muslim women veil thing kicks off. Wouldn't have even made page 40 of the daily mail otherwise.

Read between the media stories here.

She wasn't not allowed to wear it because it was a cross.

She wasn't allowed to wear it OUTSIDE her uniform as all British Airways staff must wear all personal jewellery inside the uniform (not on display).

Religion had nothing to do with it, she deliberately jumped on the religion bandwagon in order to get a big payday from BA, and it failed. So ha-ha-ha you stupid bint.

Sounds fair enough to me if thats ba's standard policy. Don't really see the link between this and sftctownendas brother being attacked.

Agreed. She strikes me as a self righteous christian type. She should either wear it under her blouse or shut the fuck up.

I've heard the club are to make an announcement on Thursday that no home or away shirts are to be worn to the match on Saturday, unless completely hidden by a coat and/or sweater, with a weighty scarf (of non-STFC origin).

All churches are now to be hidden from view also. Churches will be artificially sunk to a level of -30metres so as not to cause offence. If a spire does rise above ground level at all it will be covered by a multiculturally-acceptable sheet.

Excellent. Once we have rid the country of christianity we can start on Islam.

did you see her on the breakfast news yesterday ?  'Its important for me to know that customers see my cross and know that Jesus loves them' or words to that effect...

sorry love, its important for me to know that you are doing everything you can to make sure i'm going to get on the plane, with no explosive toothpaste on board,  and arrive at my destination on time, with my luggage at the same destination.  I'm sure that our Lord Jesus Christ would do all he could to help, but frankly I'd rather the check in staff relied on their training and experience in the job.

fucking religions.
wake up all you brainwashed idiots there is no fucking god.

my local mp will be receiving a letter from me asking for the brainwashing of children from the age of 4 with tales and storys that cannot be proven and are frankly laughable be removed from the school timetable.
its taught as fact for fucks sake!
unbelievable.

Always remember that jesus loves you arriba.

Arriba, if Jesus Christ were here today and able to reply to such a blasphemous statement he'd probably say something like

"Child, what troubles you, what causes you to act in this way, you miserable fucking piece of shit.  Do us all a favour numb nuts and fuck off, all you do is moan, moan, moan.  I thought Doubting Thomas and Judas were miserable cunts, but you take the biscuit.  You won't be happy til you're dead so do us all a favour and jump off a cliff or something higher.  My dad man!!!  What's the matter with you, is your Mrs not putting out??  Are you a frustrated wanker??  Or do you just enjoy spreading you're negative bollocks to all who can read?

Peace be with you,
Jesus H Christ"

I guess it's lucky he's not got broadband just yet.

:grin: Nice one Janaage

Quality Jan  :D

Are you really trying to tell me that Jesus is not here with us? I thought he was already registered on this forum...

Great post btw, whatever arriba or spacey might say

 :mrgreen:

:D Ace.

very good. :soapy tit wank:

but i'm not miserable at all jesus,just dont like religion.
my mrs does put out but its never enough :wink: and you'll know that anyway as you rule this earth and know what eveyone is doing.guess i'll burn in hell for not believing.

in all seriousness i'd rather be negative about shit that cannot be proven than play along with it like most people do for the sake of tradition.

having said that if jesus had said the above to me then i would then believe wouldn't i.  :D
my soul would be saved. hallelujah

What the fucks it got to do with me?

I liked Jan's post, I always like to see people make an effort rather than copy and pasting shite jokes from elsewhere.

This country has gone downhill since they stopped letting you smoke at your desk

It was just the sort of post that I imagined would spark your creative wit and intellect.

I'm the king of copying and pasting shite jokes as I have no personality. Living in America for two years has taken its toll.

Fair enough, I thought you were saying that I'm a miserable cunt.....which of course would be a fair comment.

I was - in a roundabout sort of way.

Yeah, well fuck off then! I preferred it when you were talking about my creative wit and intellect.

She said that she wanted it visible, so people could ask her questions about Christianity and she could explain how wonderful being a Christian was.

Doesn't seem to have done much for her, miserable, pious bitch.

Surely people would have more pressing things to ask her, such as: 'Where's my fucking suitcase, you happy clapping twat?'

GOD IS LOVE.
