And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

"I can't understand why the school thinks a tiny crucifix on a thin silver necklace is a health and safety hazard,'' she told the Mail.

It's the symbolism that the school hates.

"I am proud of my religion and it is my right to wear a cross around my neck. "

What is our world becoming? Sometimes I just have to shake my head in disbelief....

I hate to see the UK go down with the rest of Eurabia but it certainly seems like there in no hope for them.

Too bad.

[Salvation]

Sounds like more persecution of the Catholics to me.

[Salvation]

Thanks for the ping. I will ping the list tomorrow. I try to keep it down. LOL!

[george76]

Thanks.

more persecution of Catholics

Would you believe it causes a rift in the space/time continuum?

Would you believe...it attracts lightning?

Would you believe... it breaches health and safety rules...?

[Douggles]

hmmm. This is disgusting to say the least.

I know of some stories of adults wearing mock-crosses (which feature such tasteful modifications as a cocaine-scooping spoon at the bottom of the crucifix, surely a RAT-fuelled mockery of faith for atheist junkies), but I highly doubt this is what is being worn by these Christian children. Health and safety hazard my bum.

[lndrvr1972]

Its only going to get worse.

[Grizzled Bear]

At least you can still bring a Bible in when you fly to the UK. For now.

[wodinoneeye]

The Christians in Britain need to hammer the politicos who allow crap like this into mush at the ballot box.

Having them cater to 'special' minorities while oppressing the majority deserves being driven from office and forcing proper policies.

[BW2221]

You laugh but banks in England stopped giving kids piggy banks because Muslims found it offensive.

[17th Miss Regt]

Maybe they should give them cheap banks in the form of Mohammed. When they need to get out the money inside they can just sever the head to open it.

[Cheapskate]

"HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARD????"

What's the deal?'Wear a cross and lose your head??/

when are sheeple going to wake up on this crap???

Catholic Ping List
Please freepmail me if you want on/off this list

[derllak]

Am I crazy or is this crap getting totally ridiculous? Come now, Lord Jesus!

[expatguy]

Met a UK traverer yesterday over here who called me "delusional" for believing in God.

[ZULU]

Its more generic - its persecuting all Christians to pander to Muslims.


Most European males have apparently been psychologically castrated. That's why their birthrate is down.

P.C. does that.
