ANY time you talk about ANYTHING like "beliefs" at work, you are taking a chance on offending someone. Sorry buds, but it doesn't matter how much someone "pushes" you to say how you feel, if that feeling is hurtful to others, than in todays workforce you will be removed.

I REALLY hate to say it, because i don't think hurting someones fucking feelings SHOULD be grounds for being dismissed, but it is..... and the "double standard" argument that people will make about his feelings/beliefs being offended is invalid because of one simple thing. He didn't complain first. If he had went to HR and told them that this person was trying to make him feel bad about being christian, then it WOULD have went the other way. But he didn't, and they did.


I make it a point to offend anyone of an Abrahamic faith as much as possible. Especially Christians, do to their proximity in numbers to me.

I do try to respect people on all fronts, but someone's human-ness has nothing to do with their beliefs, no matter how much they try. I respect your right to any opinion, but I certainly do not have to respect the opinion itself (only as good as the facts that back it up!)


Unless of course if you're working in an office/corporate setting. Then you DO have to respect someone elses opinion whether or not they can back it up. Like i said, i don't agree with it, but in todays workforce you have to be constantly aware of people that you may offend. Yes i know how crazy that sounds but i also know it's how it works. Matter of fact we just had a course on it here, it's called sensitivity training. And unlike any clear thinking adult would think, following it's guidelines is mandatory.
