Do you agree that someone elses beliefs are more important than your own?

TRUTHNOW78,
This is the Islamification process aided and abetted by multicultural dhimmies.
Islam has always sought to bring non-Muslims to submission.
That's what Islam means: submission.
Unfortunately there are many useful idiots with no understanding of history who are guided by misconceived notions of egalitarianism.
They should go live in Saudi Arabia or Iran or Afghanistan for a while and see how successful they are in convincing the local Imams into time-sharing their mosques with their local Jews and Christians.
We could all watch it on youtube and have a good laugh as they dialogue with their interfaith counterparts at the mosque.
The problem you refer to can only increase as more followers of the Prophet move from Dar al-Islam to Dar al-Harb, their demands increase and dhimmies submit to those demands.
Do something about it or get used to it.
The good citizens of Rotterdam are getting used to it.
They have sections of theatres for the exclusive use of women.
They have taxis that will only carry women and have only women drivers.
Their swimming pools are gender segregated to appease Islamic sensibilities.

This has all been brought about in the name of tolerance, inclusion and diversity.
Not to mention capitulation to Islamic demands/threats.
This will happen here if we let it.

I agree it is misplaced political correctness. Madness.

It is a Christian Chapel and as such should be able to sport the necessary Christian accessories.

This apears to be a storm in a teacup.
The Hospital Administration has made an
attempt to make their chapel one in
which every faith can
feel comfortable in. They have
not banned Bibles or any other religious
symbols. They have merely allocated these
symbols to be used for specific services
and ceremonies.

As the newspaper article
clearly states:

"These important religious symbols are appropriately
stored and used regularly."

It's mischievious to blame Muslims or Islamic Leaders
for the Hospital's decision in this matter. Because again,
as the newspaper article states:

"Islamic Leaders last night stressed they would
NOT have asked for Christian symbols to be removed."

Do I think that my religion is more important
then anybody else's?

Of course not.

Apparently the Administration of
The Royal North Shore Hospital agrees with me.

Another beat-up story designed to maintain some sort of indignant rage among the community.

Name one person who has been imprisoned, arrested or even charged for a deliberate act of political incorrectness.

Vilification is one thing but giving legal credence to matters of personal offence or tastelessness is another.

Let somebody carry a bible or wear a cross into that chapel and see if they are actually confronted. If so, let the legal system do it's job and expose it for the tripe that it really is.
