    So it is! So he is breaking the Human Rights Act by being intolerant to those of an Atheist Disposition.

    No. He is a private individual and thus not a representative of any public or private entity.

      Being a private individual excuses you from obeying the law? I don't think so. And he is a reprentitive of a public or private entity, he is an employee of a Public Transport Company.

        Not of this sort: it is trivial and risible and is also not very christian: are the beliefs (or otherwise) of others not allowed to be seen? Ar emy beliefs so upsetting to you that you could not even read them without have the strength to understand them without being turned? You give it a rest.

          Man refuses to drive 'No God' bus [^] I can only imagine how threatened this twat must feel by a sign on the side of a bus. Is his faith so weak that it could be turned by a few words on the side of a bus? Moron.

          Regardless of YOUR beliefs, I think the gentleman has as much rights as anyone to protest over his beliefs. By calling him weak-minded, you only reveal your prejudice in the matter. I don't happen to agree with his position either, but think you might be the moron here for disrespecting his right to protest.

            I feel very confident in saying that if someone put the ten commandments on the side of the buses you would be whining. So yeah, give it a rest.

            You couldn't be more wrong if you had a masters in wrongness. The written word where it conflicts with my views I find well worth reading and trying to understand. If, having done that, my opinion chnages then all well and good; if not, no harm done. I doubt that there is a written form of words that would rattle my cage suffciently to put me in fear of those words or the meaning behind them.

              Actually, the Act gives protection to an individual against public authority. Not giving individual protection against another individual. Thus, the individual also has some responsibilities namely "for the protection of the reputation or rights of others" but failure for the individual to give such undertaking is not a violation of somebody else's rights under Human Rights legislation but maybe prosecuted under some other act. If the employee is deemed a representative of a public or private entity and causes some action contrary to the Human Rights Act then the public or private entity can be prosecuted but not the individual who is the representative of such entity. However, the employee in this particular case is using his rights not to drive a bus which distresses him because of stated articles of Human Rights Act and consequently it is a requirement of the entity to satisfy those rights or face possible prosecution.

                        I find that I can think of things that would force me to take a stand similar to his. Since I'd want to have that right and be respected when I exercised it (whether I could keep my job or not is a different story) I guess I'll have to respect him.

                                          Are you trying to say that a few words on the side of a bus are that threatening that he needs to find an excuse reason not to work for the day? He is stupid and simple or he would have laughed it off and got on with his job.

                                          If your faith can be upset by a few words then it must be pretty weak.

                                          It obviously hasn't effected his faith. I would suspect that he doesn't want any part in spreading that message. I wouldn't want to either. It doesn't say anything about his intelligence. Would you say the same about somebody who refused to drive a bus because it had a religious message on it?


                                          Visit BoneSoft.com for code generation tools (XML & XSD -> C#, VB, etc...) and some free developer tools as well.
