[QUOTE="Justinian, post: 78339, member: 923"] What that article doesn't say is what other religious songs were also not approved. What it also doesn't say is where exactly they were trying to sing. I mean if they're going from room to room singing, then who knows who they might offend. I hate to say it like that, but let's be serious here. You can offend someone for any reason that they see fit. Would it offend most, probably not, but it only takes one.

Hell, I offended someone once by calling myself fat. They said it was an offense to people that are obese. I got in even more trouble when I lifted my shirt to show my belly though. :P.
