Erik Stanley: Church bells ringing since 16th Century under attack

By Alliance Alert

ADF Attorney Erik Stanley writing at speakupmovement.org/church: "The attack on St. Mary?s bells is the latest salvo in Europe?s battle against Christianity, and steady march toward secularism. European society increasingly sees religion as useless and a nuisance. Churches have lost their distinctive role in Europe and are marginalized and treated as nothing more than any other secular business. What makes the St. Mary?s case even more striking, though, is the fact that the church bells at St. Mary?s have been ringing since the 16th century and only now has the government begun to crack down on the bells despite this heritage and history. There is no regard for the Christian heritage of the church in Europe."
