    More discrimination nonsense.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/e...on/7704835.stm

    Muslim catering manager thinks it's religious discrimination that he's expected to handle pork products as part of his job of providing food for non-muslims.

    What's the Sharia prescribed punishment for bringing Islam into disrepute?
    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

      I wonder if a vegetarian hindu type could also have a case, or perhaps a born-again Christian could apply for a job as a photographer for Escort, then sue on the grounds that photoing naked ladies for prurient purposes is against his religion? Maybe Contractor79 could let us know.

        I wish it was against their religion to live in religious-tolerant countries.

                  It's simple, if he can't do the job as required. leave.

                  It's like a diver saying " I can do everything the job requires except go underwater"

                  He was given three years of special dispensation because he was situated where there were others that could carry the load.
                  Now that there aren't and he has to do the job he is being paid for, he expects them to either employ another person to handle the pork products, or remove pork products from the menu.
                  Sorry, but he wanted to cook for people that like their sausage and bacon breakfasts. stuff him
