It costs twenty three thousand quid every day to keep a church "open"? Are they burning rare paintings for the boiler?

They make 23k a day being open. It will cost them that amount to close. RIF.

ginandbacon: Whoa! The menus (new window) for lunch and tea look really good.

But it's not a business!

Wow, molesting is expensive.

I'm not quite sure what they're doing protesting the church? Or are they just camping out at the church, which is near the protest site?

if you read the article you'd find that they were told they could protest there. but now it looks like they've overstayed their welcome.

I Love Happy Stuff: I'm not quite sure what they're doing protesting the church? Or are they just camping out at the church, which is near the protest site?

If I remember correctly, they wanted to protest at another location but they were told it was private property and so they moved to the church instead

"Ah yes Deacon, I shall have the Slightly Charred Stuff Pork chop in that delightful dill sauce, and a bottle of your finest pre-Inquisition red please."

Well the church has had a sordid history and present full of indiscretions, so I guess this is what I call just comuppence. 23,000 pounds a day, that is more than many Brits make in a year. Give me a break.

GAT_00: A church makes 23,000 pounds a day in profit? Yeah, that's not a business at all.

not a business major huh?

No comments on the grammar of this headline?

"Not so much about you are costing me £23,000 a day"

lol@ the poll on the bottom:

Yes - But the cathedral should stay open because they don't pose a real health and safety danger 7.04%

This is what we mean when we say "nanny state".

They should have nipped this in the bud.



Certainly, Britain should repress political speech so an American tourist is not inconvenienced.

religion is more of a racket than a business

Don't you just love it when two left-leaning, liberal, hand-wringing groups get into a pissing match.

/nooooooooooooo

ginandbacon: and the cheese plate with champers,

Super Nintendo Champers?

Ahhhh a Church of Engliand thread...

Hmm, maybe I should have majored in church rather than computer science.

I make a lot, but not that much.

I don't see the problem. When your host asks you to leave, you should leave.

Hobodeluxe: religion is more of a racket than a business

I'm don't subscribe to any religion and not going to get drawn into a debate on it, but that doesn't change what a profit is.

ginandbacon: Please try to remember that I have never been a 12 y.o. boy. Your reference, it is beyond my personal optic.

sigh...

left wing? a church? and what exactly makes them left wing? what makes the protesters left wing? conservatives (not republicans) should be just as pissed as anyone else about the current economic inequality and control over democracy that the plutocrats have. you "conservatives" have lost your way and have been brainwashed by the corporate social conditioning media. your entire ideology has been co-opted by the plutocrats. using nationalism,religion,Xenophobia and bigotry you've been made slavering sycophants to the ruling elite.

Uh...it's an Anglican church. With the exception of a few overzealous monarchs, CoE has had a relatively bloodless and scandal free existence (when compared to say, Roman Catholicism).

Note to passive resisters, you're doing it wrong.



Permits, we didnt care about no stinkin' permits!

RIP? How about WTF? As in: WTF does this have to do with the story and/or thread?

ginandbacon: Oh. TYVM. We are now even as I had to bring you up to speed on Bringing Up Baby.

*knuckles*

Amazed that no one yet has associated the £23,000/day with robbing Peter to pay...

If your church is losing $23,000 per day it wasn't a church to begin with.

What are you? Racist?

What's the name of the mental disorder where one believes they have no control over the world around them because it is being controlled by a shadow figure behind a curtain? Mass mental illness this has become.

Obviously I must be if I want to know where the random picture came from and what its relevance is to the thread.
So now I ask: WTF about the question makes me racist? You have a serious problem.
