They better not come near me when I am there. That would ruin all the fun of that great place.
Are these bloody religions ever going to be knocked off the pedestals???
Not so long as people are scared that the disapproval of a holy man can send them straight to Hell.
The religious are still superstitious morons terrified of the medicine man with his ratting beads.
There was the reverse problem last year in Hyde Park in London.
Since it's opening about 200 years ago Hyde Park has had a public area known as Speakers corner where anyone can talk or preach about anything. However over time the corner has spread out and three years back there was a bi-law passed limiting Speaking, preaching, public prayer and proselyting back to the original area, for the comfort and convenience of all.
However a local mosque took to publicly praying toward Mecca in the park. A 60 year old local woman (I can't recall her name right now Amy something I think) called the police and demanded they enforce the law. The Police refused and told her she would be arrested for inciting hatred if she did not leave at once, (when pushed the sergeant admitted to her moving them on would possibly have cause a riot or revenge attacks on the park).
The Woman did and posted a video of the encounter on You Tube, the next day she was arrested for inciting race hatred, held in custody for a day and then released with a warning.
The Mosque were told they could no longer pray in the park UNLESS they asked permission for an exception in future which London Mayor Sadiq Khan was happy to grant.
This being an available option why did they not simply do this anyway. Apparently the Salvation army do this twice a year to play brass band music, which in my opinion is even worse being a LOT louder.
EDIT I have tried to find the name of the woman but all You Tube Video's have been blocked her account has been suspended etc. So Sorry

Posted by CliffordCookChristian Nationalists like to insist that the United States of America is a Christian nation. What do the facts show?
Posted by KilltheskyfairyI know where we can get some really big rocks…
Posted by CliffordCookIf the Christian Bible is such a great book, how come most Christians can’t bring themselves to read it all the way through even once?
Posted by CliffordCookIf Christians really believe in a god that is all powerful and will provide for all their needs, why do they keep on demanding taxpayer support for their struggling religious schools?
Posted by CliffordCookI groaned when I saw this Christian Nationalist Christmas meme posted by one of Donald Trump's supporters in Iowa. Then, I smiled when I saw how many of his Facebook friends had reposted it.
