7-21-2004 Mich. City OKs Amplified Islamic Prayers
The City Council unanimously passed the amendment to the noise ordinance in April after a mosque asked for permission to begin broadcasting the Arabic chants, traditionally issued five times a day.
"The church has been doing this for years. This is not calling people to prayer. It's (giving) the time of day,"
"They're trying to make it a big deal, but it's not," he said. "If you go two or three blocks, you can't even hear it."
-----------------------------------------
Hmmmmm, let's see, a Church bell rings 12 times, it's Twelve O'clock - Prayer chant varies by time all over the place.
Yep, they're the same alright :roll: :disgust:
