We could learn something from your secular example!

 

 

I would also like to thank the Moderators for allowing this thread which is 
terribly off topic to continue.  We probably should wrap it up but I do thank 
Mark and Kara for allowing it go this far.  I think it was important and I also 
think it was important to say that a lot of us here didn’t agree with the 
meddling in your affairs either.

 

Thank you Moderators and thanks everyone for the spirited discussion.

Hello Sabahattin,

Anne, that’s absolutely appalling.  You were refused at point of need for a 
kidney transplant by the NHS?  Damn those French, so efficient and socially 
competent—if a little too Islamaphobic for my taste.  My own experience with 
the NHS (but not for a transplant) has been truly wonderful, so your story 
makes me sad.  Now we’re out, presumably we won’t see any more of that 
wonderful efficiency from across the channel.

I was actually refused dialysis even though I was suffering horribly with so 
much fluid retention that moisture was seeping through my skin. A very 
compassionate doctor eventually got me onto a dialysis machine and saved my 
life.

 

The French are not particularly Islamaphobic, they just don’t like visible 
signs of belonging to a particular religion since the state is officially 
secular. There are, however, around six million Muslims in France which is 
almost a tenth of the population. Of course, France has its share of bigots of 
all kinds, just like everywhere else.

 

Cheers,

 

Anne
