Re: Nurse suspended for offering to pray for patient's recovery

What she did in disobeying her superiors probably wasn't well advised but that's another issue and nothing to do with the point I was making. I fail to see how anyone (be they Christian, Moslem, Jewish or whatever) could offend someone by showing how much they care. Had this nurse tried to convert or coerce the patient into changing their own religious views that would be a very different matter for a different time and place. However as I see it a religious nurse simply offered to do something she believed would help and/or bring some comfort - syurely all the patient had to do was say 'no thank you'.
