Attorneys for the Church of Universal Love and Music are asking a judge to not allow jurors see a segment of John Stewart’s Daily Show. The group claims to be a church and that the county is discriminating against it. But County officials say the organization shouldn’t get that status when it comes to zoning laws and a bit that ran on the Daily Show confirms it. During the program, Church of Universal Love and Music founder William Pritts told viewers, "God never said you can't party on." The county believes that was his real intention is not religious but promoting concerts. They denied him permits to hold his “services” featuring rock and jazz music. Pritts sued for $1 million, saying the concert ban violates his religious freedoms. Trial is set for next month.

Very interesting post! I really enjoy reading your blog. Keep up the good work.
I’ve just started a new blog that will be highlighting the dangers of the secular progressive movement (pro-gay “rights”, pro-abortion, anti-religious freedoms, etc). Unfortunately, most Christians still don’t know what’s going on out there and the mainstream media certainly isn’t covering it.
We’re looking to build a solid group of social conservatives who’ll frequent our site regularly and contribute to some good discussions. I hope you’ll check us out!
If you’ll add us to your blogroll we’ll gladly add you to ours. Just drop us a comment over at our blog so that we’ll know to add you. Our blog is called Religion and Morality.
Thanks!
