Religous Bias in the MOD

rjt · 09-03-2006, 08:30 AM

Frequently my line manager is given instructions to be sympatheic to religous services/holidays of other faiths.

Whilst I accept as a Christain I am not required in my job to work Christmas or Easter it should be noted that the Christan faith is the faith of our nation and people coming to this country should recognise this fact and be prepared to comprimise. In some Muslim states I would be barred from practicing my faith.

So when i approached my boss and said these instructions should apply to me as I wanted 2 hours off to go to church to celebrate Lent it will not susprie you to hear he said no.
