 This is yet another crazy P.C. moment. I remember last year that the Red Cross said that they would not decorate their charity shops for Christmas to avoid offending Muslims. Again, the Muslim community were very supportive of Christians, who were very offended by this statement. I often find it very difficult at work, as I have to endure celebrations of all sorts of non-Christian festivals, such as Halloween or even having a 'funday' on Good Friday. I decline such things and then I'm seen as a problem, but no-one would dream of forcing a Muslim to eat pork to make it fun in work. It seems that offending Christians is not classed as being anti- P.C.
