Dr David Drew, a former clinical director at Walsall Manor Hospital, was dismissed in December 2010. His appeal against unfair dismissal and religious discrimination was rejected by an employment tribunal.
Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust said it welcomed the verdict, but regretted the case had gone as far as the tribunal. The appeal on Saturday backed an original decision, rejecting his religious discrimination claims, made by a hearing in April 2012.
Dr Drew, a consultant paediatrician from Sutton Coldfield, said he had been told to keep his beliefs to himself after including prayers and Christian references in emails.
He's obviously never read his bible.
ReplyDeleteMatthew 6:5-6
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."
Amazing the number of supposed Christians who don't follow the teachings of Christ.
If they followed the bible, they'd have a fairly limited selection of clothing too.

Only because it has been shown to negatively affect the body's aura, and therefore possibly affecting your health.
There is much we don't understand yet.
Honestly, my brother-in-law lost his job because he kept "saving" people at work. He preaches to anybody who will listen. It drives me batty.
ReplyDeleteI would count that constant bombardment with religious stuff as harassment, and creating a toxic workplace. Good on them for canning him. And I so agree with all the commenters who point out how many Christians ignore the teachings of Jesus.
ReplyDeleteWell said Barb.
