Christian charity bans Christmas themed children's gift
Christian charity samaritan's Purse fears anything relating to Jesus may offend Muslims.
It is a Christian charity bringing Christmas cheer to needy children abroad.
So its decision to bans Jesus,God and anything else connected with its own faith has been greeted with short of puzzlement.
Operation Christmas Child,run by the charity samaritan's Purse,send festive packages to deprived youngsters in countries ravaged by war and famine.
Donors are asked to pack shoeboxs with a cuddly toy,a toothbrush and toothpaste soap and flannel,notepads,colouring books and crayons - but nothing to do with Christmas.
Stories from the Bible,images of Jesus and any other Christian literature are expressely forbidden - in case Muslims are offended.
