The shape of things to come....

According to the article the broadcasting of the call is not to give the faithful a reminder but is an essential part of their worship!

Can we install a similar loud-hailer system to send out the following...

"Shut the fuuuuuuuuuu ckup!!"?

Don't have a problem with it myself.

If Church Bells are allowed, then I don't see why this can't be.

lads, in fairness, the churches ring their bells, so why can the others do the same ?

This is yet another reason why I never feel the need to question my stance of 'not doing religion'

Never mind that, where's your sense of national security?

"Christian churches ring bells, but they are just a signal. The Muslim call is a theological statement. Imagine the outrage if churches were to propose broadcasting the Lord's Prayer over and over again three times a day."

If they wanted to ring a bell that would be fine by me, screaming and shouting over a bloody megaphone is something completely different.

Not to mention this is a christian country (at least it was the last time I checked). Could you image the fuss if you went and built a church in Saudi and started ringing the bells to call people to worship?? It would prolly be burnt down within a month....
