subject: Sorry Jesus - You Don`t Have A Permit!

The enemies of Christ become more ridiculous by the day! Sex shops, porn and
promiscuity fill our city streets, our movie theaters, our television sets,
our radio waves, etc., and authorities think that is permissible and just
fine; but just let a dedicated Christian publicize his faith -- ON HIS OWN
PROPERTY no less -- and he gets a slap on the wrist! Shame, shame, shame!


Church warned that flag of Jesus is 'religious advertising'

A vicar has been warned by council officials about flying a flag depicting
Jesus Christ outside his church because it was deemed to be "religious
advertising".

Rev Mark Binney, vicar of St Andrew's Church, Hampton, Worcs, said he had
been told he needed planning permission if he wanted to fly a flag
"advertising Christianity" in future.

The flag was put up outside the church in the week preceding Easter Sunday
displaying the words 'This is Holy Week' and an image of Jesus on the cross.

Mr Binney said the warning was "appalling", and he felt it was part of a
gradual erosion of Christianity in Britain.

Wychavon council said it investigated a complaint from a member of the
public and decided no consent was required.

A spokesman said flags other than national flags, county flags, or flags for
patron saints, required advertisement consent if they were flown from a
vertical freestanding flagpole.

He said the council would consider allowing the flag to be flown for a week
in future if it was approached by the church.
