Cinema ad banned; church sues

[dyresand]

I'm surprised to see the Daily Mail reporting people being outraged by this "ban", which is not a ban as Quantum has pointed out. It says even David Cameron has got involved and seems to be backing the church. It's a bit of a dumb newspaper so I wouldn't take this all as fact yet.

This is full on retarded, if true. They expect cinemas to have to show anything anyone brings to them without discretion? Fuck off. They are not propaganda platforms. I though people would have more sense. Every fucking town in England has at least one Christian church, usually several. No one needs telling what Christianity is.

I wonder if the church were prepared to pay the going rate for such an advert? I doubt it.

This is a small issue, but worth fighting I think. It's stuff like this that acts as precedent and allows (more) elements of theocracy to creep back in.

I am on the side with the cinema's they don't have to show anything in regards to religion or  politics people pay money to 
go to a movie and enjoy it  not to have religious pandering shoved in their faces. The church can go fuck off religion specifically 
speaking christianity dying in the US and the EU.
