"Offensive" Christian Symbols being Hidden at Funerals in Scotland

Country: United Kingdom

Date of incident: July 27, 2018


The Scottish Inspector of Crematoria, Robert Swanson, said in his annual report that demands for the removal of Bibles and crosses by humanists and other minorities are on the rise. The Humanist Society of Scotland has said failure to remove Christian symbols leaves their members “open to discrimination” under the Equality Act.
