Being more serious, there isn't any requirement in the Bible saying that you have to wear any symbols identifying you as a Christian. However, there is a frustration amongst some christians at the continuing secularisation of society and general hostility towards christianity and religion in general. Some christians, rightly or wrongly, see a more tolerant attitude in general towards other religions (Islam, Hindu, Sikhs etc) and their practices and so are looking for some way to redress the balance. After all, although this is historically a christian country there are probably as many practicing muslims as there are practicing christians (taking church and mosque attendance figures).

I think this is what has prompted the woman to make the case. I don't actually agree with her though, I think she has picked the wrong fight and it won't help her and what she sees as her cause at all.

Indeed there are not and early followers of christianity would go to extraordinary lengths to conceal their faith for fear of persecution.

she needs to get off her soapbox and wear the cros under the bloody uniform like her terms and conditions stated.

Did she get legal aid for this waste of a good court room
