Is it just me, or does this thread kind of suck?
I mean, we have Islam, religion, government agencies, and hand-washing (always a hot button issue 'round these here parts)...
...and it's just kind wonky and boring.

I think that if someone calling me an idiot on the internet is the worst I get for being a Christian, I am pretty fortunate.

Yes. And the fact that they often time encircle themselves with like minded individuals and their belief system is never challenged. Most of us heathens have been on the religious side and have been freed. The religious have always believed in God even if they didn't or don't practice.

Re: Muslim staff escape NHS hygiene rule
An atheist or agnostic has basically has no choice than to consort with religious people considering the majority of Americans are religious in some way. Our families and friends are filled with people who believe in God. Can the same be said for religious people carousing with atheists and agnostics? Sure, but not at all on the same scale.
