One Third of English Christians Say: We've Suffered Discrimination
The website This is London reports that one in three Christians claim to have suffered discrimination because of their religious views, citing a new poll by the BBC.
The survey indicates that church-going Britons are increasingly facing prejudice in the media, the workplace, and their communities.
The poll comes on the heels of the case of the British Airways worker who was banned from wearing a crucifix, while Muslim employees were allowed to wear headscarfs.
A third of those polled claim Christians experience discrimination in the way the media portrays them. 25 percent said they thought they suffered discrimination in the workplace, and over 20 percent said Christians face discrimination in their local communities.
