Parking your discrimination.

From here:

Tewkesbury Borough Council in Gloucestershire is considering scrapping charges for churchgoers throughout its car parks on Sunday mornings.

Mayor Brian Calway, a Conservative who represents Prior’s Park, chaired a working group of six, tasked with reviewing the town’s parking strategy.

But a majority of the team writing the preliminary report felt the idea should not become policy as it could be viewed as unfair to other faiths.

Councillor Mike Collins, who spoke against the scheme, worried it would be perceived as discriminatory in “the modern PC world”.

Mr Collins said yesterday: “When the word Christian was used and Sunday worship, I felt that my view was there were many people around Tewkesbury who are not Christian these days. I’m not the most PC person but to single out one section would be discriminatory.

I can’t see the problem. Christianity is true and other religions aren’t. Any sane person would discriminate on the side of what is true and if those who are immersed in error become offended, suggest they abandon their error. In fact, I think Christians should have free parking all the time and atheists not be allowed to park anywhere until free parking lots spontaneously evolve on their own.
