Viva Secularitat! Viva! Viva!

Freedom of religion is more important then the freedom to sleep in on Sunday morning...  The courts decided you totally get to piss all over the legal noise restrictions at 7.00 in the morning as long as there are church bells involved.

Mind we're talking about a Christian church. Somehow I doubt that freedom of religion would hold up if a nearby Mosque tried sending their muezzin up the minarets with a loudspeaker. 

Dear government, I get that religion is kind of a hot item right now, with all those scary Muslims around, but could you please tone down  ramming your Jewish/Christian identity down my throat?!? I don't have a Jewish/Christian heritage! I come from a long line of commies and socialists. Get my grannie talking about the pope and all you get are swears. Bonifatius in Dokkum? THOSE were MY ancestors!

Here's a heritage for you: Secularity!

Wow, The Hague's been pissing me of more then I realized

I do come from a katholic background, but that still doesn't mean that I would want to be woken up at 7 am in the morning.
And you're right, I'm pretty sure the outcome would have been different if had been a mosque.
Fortunately I don't live anywhere near a Church or Mosque (or if I do they are quiet) and so I can sleep on sunday :)

Honestly, me neither. I just next to a highway and in the flightpath to Schiphol ;).

okay, confession, I went to katholic school, but Balk and his cronies just keep getting on my nerves. *grrr*

...Is your icon trying to assimilate me?
