Well, that’s the issue. If they did this out of government force or some kind of fraud, then it wasn’t a voluntary choice.
But my point remains: their freedom to choose is not limited by my or your disagreement with that choice.
. . . . and John Lewis is starting to sell niqabs for school uniforms.
How about keeping it in there, on the grounds of diversity. Christians are a minority.
They are fine with the sexualized lyrics of current pop tunes, just nothing that is overtly Christian or sings praise to Jesus. It seems to me to be a type of Jizya.
Travelodge in the UK is a different company from Travelodge in the US, different ownership, different management. Travelodge UK bought the rights to use the name in the UK; that’s the only relationship between the two.
“demanding that Christian resale shops not play Christian hymns.”
That is outrageous. It must not be allowed.
Wow! I guess Travelodge decided to stir things up a little and offend some customers that didn’t need offending.
Smooth move Travelodge. For your next act why don’t you provide free booze in your lobby 24/7.
Is this related to the Travel Lodge in the United States?
NO!!!
The article speaks to Travel Lodge in the UK. Since this is a hotel chain, there is no reason to think it does not apply to the US. It’s just that the American media hasn’t either heard of or written about it.
I have come to truly hate the word “diversity.”
When I travel, i want a motel with the three B’s—bed, bath and Bible. Since Travalodge now only offers two of the B’s, I won’t stay there.
so taking away one view is an increase in diversity?
who stops other groups putting their book in the hotel?
secular humanists could put a book there if they wanted.
but because one group makes an effort to put their book out and all the rest don’t,....
real tolerant. really increasing diversity.
A natural progression from the premise that “all cultures are equal” Boko Haram would love it!
Will they put them back just like the Navy put them back in rooms?
