In this article from the Telegraph out of the UK, a Christian Nurse has been suspended from her job, even though the patient did not complain, because she asked one of her elderly patients if she wanted her to pray for her.
This reminds me of the good ol' days, and the reason I left the establishment's medical system for medical missions, and of the Nurse Ratched One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest insanity. Typically UK media skewing, the title The Telegraph put on their article is not even correct. The nurse, Caroline Petrie, did not offer to pray for the patient; She first asked the patient if she wanted her to pray for her recovery. Big difference here.
~~~~~
Caroline Petrie, a committed Christian, has been accused by her employers of failing to demonstrate a "personal and professional commitment to equality and diversity".
She faces disciplinary action and could lose her job over the incident.
Mrs Petrie, a married mother of two, says she has been left shocked and upset by the action taken against her.
She insists she has never forced her own religious beliefs on anyone but politely inquired if the elderly patient wanted her to pray for her – either in the woman's presence or after the nurse had left the patient's home. Full story at above link.
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Isaiah 5:20
