I'm based in the UK and would be amazed to see a job spec here that
mentioned anything about religion (unless it's advertising for a vicar or
something). I can't see the relevance myself. You can either do the job or
you can't, what difference does it make if you work for "a Christian
company"? If you don't require that candidates be Christian (which would
presumably be discriminatory), why even mention it?

With writting those word at the beginning of your message you are bringing
for me every true Christian in discredite, who has given you the right to
write that, for sure not Jezus Christus, because he died to fight against
what you wrote.

Your words are very insulting and therefore probably 100% responsible for

In my opinion true Christians do not discriminate against anyone.
Doing so just proves that you are not a Christian, and it disgraces
the religion for someone to claim to be a Christian and still speak
like raibeart did. Not getting into a religious discussion, but if
raibeart wanted to act like a Christian, shouldn't he want to
associate with non-Christians and try to minister to them? After all
Jesus himself spent most of his time with (corrupt) tax collectors,
prostitutes, and other "sinners", but he didn't banish them from his
presence.

That's a really good point, and a well-spoken argument. I have to say I
would agree with you, for what that's worth. :-)

Frankly, it kind of surprised me that he posted that. It would surprise me
if that wasn't discrimination, although didn't they allow the Salvation
Army to *not* hire people *they* didn't want to hire, like gays?
>
Kind of makes you wonder how he figures out if they are Christians, doesn't
it? And it makes me wonder if there's some kind of test to see how *good*
they are at being Christian. Can he tell if it's lip service? Does he ask
if they tithe? Or volunteer? ;-)
