What on earth is happening to this country?
Now there is to be a meeting at the BMA to make sure that Doctors have the ability/permission to ask their patients if they want them to pray for them!
Terry Sanderson, president of the National Secular Society, says that it is not part of a doctors or nurses role to bring up religion with patients.
What I think he really wants is to ban Christianity completely from UK public life and of course the NHS managers, being the PC inclusive lot that they are; are happy to ban NHS staff from offering any kind of spiritual comforting!
What a load of old tosh!!! If someone wants to offer to pray for someone; then they should be able to do that without fear of reprisal or censorship. At the end of the day, last time I looked, the UK was still predominantly Christian country – albeit less so that 20 years ago.
