Title: Travellodge remove Bibles from rooms in case they cause offence

We continue down the slippery slope. I don't believe in the Man in the sky but I m not bloody offended by Bibles who the fuck would be?

Pathetic.

If prayer was taken out of mainstream schools decades ago, then Bibles were not going to last iin budget hotels ;D

Often it's a sticker in a desk drawer with "Qiblat" written on it.

Look out for it next time.

That's not the point sausage, if I see a Bible I go yeh whatever and look for the latest edition of MMA monthly, but a bible doesn't OFFEND me. This is more pandering to the pandered ones of peace.

Bingo!

The blind faith that something does NOT exist is every bit as dogmatic as blind faith that it does.
