Yet More Persecution Of Christians

[chrisgel]

The Reverend Andy Jolley (I kid you not) has got his cassock in a twist because people are not taking his religion seriously and are disrespectfully insisting on enjoying themselves by going to a football match.
He says that ""[The match] takes people in Aston's attention immediately away from what is the focus of the day which is Easter and Jesus's resurrection."
and "It's a day which legislation has recognised as a special one for families"
Are any of you enjoying today? If you are I think you owe Rev Jolley an apology.

Am I reading this right?

Christians are protesting that people who do not want to go to church on Easter Sunday have something else to do???

That's pretty amazing, isn't it?

Who the hell do they think they are? Why don't they go to church and enjoy celebrating the rebirth of their Lord and accept that others may not follow their belief?

Once again...fake persecution and oppression.

Brilliant.
