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.
------------------------------------ "The greatest tragedy in mankind's entire history may be the hijacking of morality by religion" Arthur C Clarke
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.

That is the least intelligent and most bigoted remark I have ever seen you post. Sad.

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.

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.

There's more to taking it back than simply deleting the post.

Then where is the post admitting you were an ass and begging everyone's pardon? :mad:

Man, I've got to find a way to stay on here as often as possible...I see lots of response to Idiotman, but all I ever see of his posts are "Message Automatically Removed" :laugh: :laugh:
He deserves it. Nothing but a weak-kneed, pillow-biting simpleton that has the hallmarks of a legendary bigot.

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?

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.

Obviously they are, he'd just prefer they were seen with somebody else at the helm. For a non-religious example, I recognize the right of Democrats to think they are right, that doesn't mean I'll support anything that spreads that message.

Well, of course. Without knowing, talking to, or being the man in question, you have no way of actually knowing his attitude. Your imagination is all you have to go on.

You're right. These facts that you've laid out totally contradict the wild ramblings that I pulled off the back of cornflakes packets.

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.

Well of course I don't: please feel free to take the piss as much as you want (I like a good laugh); I'll certainly take the piss out of you.

Presumably that includes watching any shows on NBC, yes?

Taking something out of context is really naughty. There is a difference between you actively proseltyzing and me reading a passive sign on a bus. In the first instance you are seeking to convert me to your way of thinking and I have to slam the door in your face. In the second I can simply read it and choose to ignore it: bit like walking past a church and reading the sign that says 'Jesus Lives' or whatever. I'm ceratinly not going to walk into the church and castigate the vicar cos I don't like his signage.
