Police Ban Bible in Christian Café
September 25, 2011 1 Comment
eChurch Blog brings us the ominous report:
Police have requested that a cafe owner in Blackpool – Jamie Murray, Salt & Light Coffee House – stop displaying Bible texts on a video screen, because it breaches public order laws.
Apparently the police told him that displaying offensive or insulting words is a breach of Section 5 of the Public Order Act, and that the Biblical texts contravened this.
It seems that police were alerted to this heinous ‘crime’ following a complaint about “insulting” and “homophobic” material.
You can read about it here in the Daily Mail.
And this video is put together by the Christian Institute:
Political correctness gone mad!
