Sunday Church Bells

I find it rather interesting that the legal noise level for neighborhoods(in Australia) is a little higher than standard conversation level. Think playing music relatively loudly with the windows open. Yet the church not only has the right, but is praised for making a giant bell ring for a good 30 minutes every sunday morning.

Sunday, the day which is known to be the day in which most people don't work. The day which has such a strong connotation to relaxing. The day in which headache tablets sell in millions, and the streets are littered with empty beer cans.

Couldn't care less about your religious beliefs, live and let live as far as I'm concerned, however I can't get my head around why it's ok to ring the biggest bells in a town every sunday morning for an extended period of time.

They're ringin' the bells, because the Tyrant is about to bring Stats hell.

What the hell, 30 minutes? That is unheard of in my area.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Sue them! That's what Americans would do if we weren't such a Christian nation

You remind me of this Monty Python sketch.

I lived right next to a church for two years. It was horrible.

It really shouldn't be allowed, all that noise at fucking 9 AM.
When you came along so righteous with a new national hate, so convincing is the ardor of war and of men, it's harder to breathe than to believe you're a friend. The wars at home, the wars abroad, all soaked in blood and lies and fraud.

I used to live next to a church for a few years. The constant ringing of bells was really annoying at first but you get used to it eventually. Sometimes they would use the bells to play songs, I heard them play "nothing else matters" from Metallica once.

Now I live next to a busy road which is infinitely more frustrating than church bells. Now I hear a lot of traffic and kids screaming.

Wow, that's a badass church you had there.
I find them quite annoying sunday morning, but what can you do?

I am a Christian, but I agree with you. They don't have the right to make more noise than any other person/household does.
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.
