Church of the Holy Sepulchre in row over water bill

Church of the Holy Sepulchre in row over water bill
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-20188167

Quote:The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem has warned that it may shut its doors to pilgrims in protest at a dispute with an Israeli water company.

The church, where many Christians believe Jesus was crucified, has had its bank account frozen at the request of Hagihon over an unpaid $2.3m bill.

The dispute has left hundreds of priests, monks and teachers unpaid.

The church has traditionally not been charged for water, but Hagihon says it is owed money for the past 15 years.

Anyone else find this kind of funny? Tongue

They should pay their damn bills like everyone else.

If they shut up shop in protest, who exactly are they hurting? Who would have noticed if they hadn't told the press? As a wise man - my Dad - once said, if all the churches and priests went on strike tomorrow, nobody would notice or care. If all the dustbinmen went on strike, we'd be up to our necks in shit by Monday.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Church officials are trying to track down Jesus. Little do they know he is peddling wine out of his shag carpeted van at tent revivals and then dropping the considerable margin in offshore accounts.
