Christian Nurse Is to Sue Clinic Over a Training Course That Said the Bible Was Racist for Mentioning 'Darkness' [UK]
The Daily Mail (UK) ^ | 1/23/22 | Harriet Dennys and Alexis Parr

* Amy Gallagher, 33, from South London, is preparing legal action against the Portman Clinic in North London, part of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust

* Ms Gallagher alleges that she was told to watch an online lecture saying Christianity was part of the European oppression of black people

* She also claims that she was asked to attend an online seminar called Whiteness – A Problem For Our Time, which claimed that all white people are racist

One of Britain's leading mental health clinics could face legal action after telling a student therapist to watch lectures saying that white people are unconsciously racist, that Christianity is a racist religion, and that the Bible can be blamed for racism because it contrasts 'darkness' and 'light'.

Amy Gallagher, a mental health nurse from south London, has spent more than £20,000 training to become a psychotherapist on a course run by the prestigious Portman Clinic in North London, part of The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust.

But now the 33-year-old is preparing a legal case, saying she believes the Trust is guilty of religious and racial discrimination against her as a white Christian.

Ms Gallagher says that senior members of the Tavistock Trust eventually threatened her with suspension from her final year of the clinical qualification and, as the dispute escalated, suggested that her career as a psychotherapist could be at risk.

God must be racist for making daylight “light” and nighttime ‘dark” according to their logic.

Yep, it’s mentioned the first time right there in Genesis 1:2-3.

Tomorrow morning when I have to get up before sunrise and I think how I hate getting up while it’s still dark, I guess that’s racist too, because any time darkness is regarded negatively, it reflects poorly on non-whites. What an idiotic time we live in.

If that nurse really wanted to make those racist idiot’s heads explode, she could point out emphatically that it was because of Christian white people that slavery was abolished.

"If that nurse really wanted to make those racist idiot’s heads explode, she could point out emphatically that it was because of Christian white people that slavery was abolished."

Slavery wasn't abolished in East Africa until 1909 -- and even then under pressure from white England.

Now that I just took up for white folks, let's be clear about the real basis for abolition: Christianity. The 1st and 2nd great awakenings are what caused abolition. Let's not get baited into the worldly trap of protecting the white race from constant teachings by saying, "But we were better about stuff than other races". At the end of the day, the best accomplishments by whites are always done at the Hand that causes the bet accomplishments in other races.

Plenty of black people know the darkness is evil and also know it has nothing to do with their skin color. Crazy talk from a pagan heathen.

Because their deeds are evil.

Panic on the brain, world has gone insane
Things are starting to get heavy, mm
I can’t help but think I haven’t felt this way
Since I asked you to go steady

Wonderin’, would you be, my little quarantine?
Or is this the way it ends?

‘Cause I told you my level of concern
But you walked by like you never heard
And you could bring down my level of concern
Just need you to tell me we’re alright, tell me we’re okay

Need you now
I need you now

In a world, where you could just lie to me
And I’d be okay, we’ll be okay
we’re gonna be okay

If the woke can be triggered and veto so much that is done in training and schools, why can't others, such as Christians, be afforded the same privileges...........Oh....politics and propaganda of social change.
