What A Fantastic Idea!

What A Fantastic Idea!

Quote:Nigerian city of Lagos shuts 'noisy' churches and mosques

Quote:Authorities in Nigeria's Lagos State have shut 70 churches and 20 mosques in an attempt to reduce high noise levels.
About 10 hotels, pubs and club houses were also closed, officials said.
Some estimates put Lagos' population at around 20 million, creating a constant background of noise - from the blaring of car horns, to the Muslim call to prayer and loud singing in churches.

Lock 'em up for disturbing the peace!

Can you imagine living in any city that has a population of 20+ million people? Only a couple of our States have over 20 million people.

I'll bet the fanatics start terrorist attacks within the month.

No.  I think the neighbors on either side of me are assholes.

How loud can a church sing?!
I've never been to one, but it's definitely not as loud as the call of prayer where there are like 10 megaphones in the air.
