Can't say Jesus @ Work?

I also believe in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is saddening that we are not allowed to have religious beliefs of our own because the way other people feel about it. I find it terrible that there is no long the Pledge of Allegiance in the school because of the word God being in there, I remember the children sitting down in school and not saying the pledge if they did not believe in God. What is happening in this world that they have to take God out of everything.

I think employers nowadays want to control their workers in every possible way they can, they want to restrict free speech in the work places, freedom of expression, freedom of religion and variety of worker rights issues. It is silly to restrict 'word' in work place among workers, your employer is being dictatorial in giving order like this, may be he is an anti-Christ at heart. The word 'Jesus' strike a fear or discomfort inside his head. lol!

First off, some people say "Jesus" as a curse word, and I would not want to hear that, and others believe that it irreverent to say "God" or "Jesus" and I would not want to offend them. I do not think that is the problem at your work though. I think the corporation you work for is afraid. They are so afraid of being offensive to someone or some group that they have actually offended others like you and I. However, if employees cannot say "Jesus" they should not be able to say "Mohammed" or "Buddha" or "Krishna" and the rule should go clear across the board for all. Some people claim that if employees express their faith it creates a "religiously hostile" work environment for those around them that do not believe. I do not agree, but I am not "big business" or a corporation. Just remember that no one can stop you from praise and worship in your heart.

My first instinct is to say Geez, and I think what is happening at your job is that they are part of the "being afraid" part of this sue happy world. See I am sure that when corporate sat down with human resources and the legal team to bring up this issue it was perhaps because some people do get offended with using "Jesus" as a term and or offensively. So to avoid all at all ridicule cost they just decided it would be best to ban the word from the work place. Is it silly? Yes. But we live in such a sue happy world that at times does not have their priorities straight in the world, sadly.

I don't say Jesus as merely an expression. I usually say it with respect and honor. I think when i was young, in one of my Bible studies we were taught not to mention Jesus name in a very casual manner or use it as an expression but always say HIs name with honor and adoration. That's what i believe.
