Ice
because the values of the bible are the only ones that matter so by proxxy they're doing you a good thing by being a bunch of condascending pricks.

in my humble opiinion of course.

it had nothing to do with the cross being offensive to people.

non necesarry religious artefacts were not part of BA's dress code whereas necesarry ones were.

it is not a prerequisite part of attire for a christian to wear a cross, other religions do have articles of clothing or jewelery that their religion dictates they must wear.

it was simply a case of her not following her employers uniform code. i'd expect to get my ass hauled into the office if i walked by my area manager wearing a pair of levi's and sandals....

but the point of the cross is that its very personal to the person wearing it. sort of a personal spiritual something or other lol!

BA shouldnt have the right to tell people your not allowed to wear something that is extemly personal to u. Yes there may be a dress code that you must abide by but a cross is not a normal everyday bit of clothing like jeans or trainers!

what if my cock ring and assless chaps are extremely personal to me????

christ lets not be so extreme, i have jeans and shirts that i love and hold very personal. should i be able to saunter into work in my favourite 501's instead of my dress trousers?

A CROSS IS NOT A MANDATORY PIECE OF CLOTHING FOR CHRISTIANS TO WEAR ERGO BA ARE PERFECTLY REASONABLE IN SAYING THEY DO NOT WANT ANYONE WEARING IT.

if the church dictated that a cross HAD to be worn then they would have allowed her to wear it.

what is making it so hard for you to grasp that non necessary religious items are not allowed under BA's uniform code?

they could get in an uproar all they want, B.A. would be well within their right to fire them or reprimand them.

what if someone decided to take their mums ashes to sit on the check in desk? that's a very personal item, would that be ok?....
