Swiss ban on minarets

And, on the other side of the coin....

At Cathedral of Christ the King in North Phoenix, Bishop Rick Painter prepares for his Sunday morning sermon. But there's more than just Sunday's service on his mind. That's because Painter was convicted of two misdemeanors earlier this week. His crime? The church bells that ring during the day are apparently too loud.

Painter's church moved in near Greenway and 29th Avenue last year. He says they informed neighbors they planned to play electronic bells during the day. Painter says he didn't hear from anyone until the bell system was already installed and playing. Neighbors filed noise complaints and this week, a judge found him guilty of excessive noise.

Bishop Painter will be sentenced next month. Even though Painter feels its unlikely, he could face jail time. Until sentencing, no decision will be made regarding what to do with the bells. So, they continue to ring.

Arrogant church prick thinks disturbing the peace is his right.
