Hi,
I wonder if any other atheists have had the following experiance, or
if any NHS staff would like to comment on it? A couple of years ago
I had to spend a few weeks in an NHS hospital. When I was admitted
they asked my religion, I replied I was an atheist, the nurse flatly
refused to write the word, instead she put 'none'. This of course is
not quite the same thing, an atheist does not accept the existance
of god (no capital on purpose), whereas to claim no religion sounds
as if you just have n't thought about the issue.
Please give me your thoughts, was this a one off?
Anneliese.
