title: Promoting christianity is unacceptable in health care.
abstract: Offering to say a prayer is a warm and kind thought (letters June 10). Most patients will accept it as such. It is no more offensive than being offered a sleeping pill. If they do not like the idea, they can simply say: 'Thanks, but no thanks.' 'Thanks, but no thanks.'
