If this is a benefit the employees value (and since they asked the employees, it appears it is) and it does not infringe on another employee's religious practices, I say great. I am glad they have a tolerant culture. I applaud City Furniture for being flexible enough to offer benefits valued by their employees.

My employer offers pastoral care, but then again it's a hospital that has priests/ministers/etc on the payroll anyway. As an atheist with four cats, I'd rather have the pet insurance...
