Subject: RE: BS: Nurse Suspended for praying ????
So sorry if you don't like Hitler being brought up. He was in fact an atheist--which is the point at issue re: Hitler. And that only came up when a certain brilliant poster was trying to allege he was Christian.   Which was not true after about age 7.   Unless the poster perhaps thinks we should believe everything Hitler said in speeches. Rather than what he said in private--and especially, what he did.

And Hitler first came up when other posters were trying to make the absurd allegation that Christians and Christianity had been on balance negative for the world. Totally unproven. Whereas it is painfully obvious that atheism has been on balance very negative for the world. As I have explained, giving examples and reasons.   Yet again, Hitler, Stalin and Mao were all atheists--and responsible for more deaths than anybody else in history.

And current prominent atheists--like the current ruler of North Korea--do not help the cause.

But I can certainly understand why "free-thinkers" would rather not grapple with this.



Now back to the nurse.

One poster is concerned that if he were to reject a prayer, the care a Christian nurse would give him would be lower quality than if he were to accept the prayer. Perhaps he's projecting his own attitude if he were to be caregiver to a fundamentalist Christian.   If he would behave this way as caregiver, that's despicable conduct and he should resign his position forthwith.

If he suspects a Christian nurse would be likely to behave this way, he is doing nothing but showing , yet again, his own amply obvious paranoia--unsurprisingly.
