Is there any authority / regulatory agency that one can report all these noise making churches to? God! It's bloody annoying the way these people shout into their mics and bang their drums without regard to day or night. What is this? I'm a Christian mind you. 1 Like |

tanfani:Please allow them praise God the way they can. If it is genuinely from their heart and love for God, it is not noise-making. 1 Like |

Valued: so it's ok to make noise and inconvenience others because you want to praise God? That's a terrible orientation. if Satan worshipers were chanting loud all day and all night, not letting you concentrate or sleep in peace, would it still sound ok to you? it's wrong to impose your religion on others in any way |

tanfani:Some of them do not have church bulidings, so they worship outside. The other sunday, a collection was made for a church in one of these war-affected areas. The priest in charge of the church came pleading, that his church members sit on the ground to worship God, but they worship God joyfully...and when people pass and see how united and happy they are worshipping God despite the condition of things, they are drawn and the church is growing Do you know that an unbeliever can come across a place where people are worshipping God passionately on top of their voice and start having a re-think? He will start wondering what God is doing for them that they are so heartily praising God on the top of their voice, and may be moved by their faith. |

nomabeeee: Your church is a fearful church then. That means even you as a Christian won't be bold. What a pity! When Muslims are shouting my ears down in my area, you are here complaining. Does it mean your church is dead or what? 1 Like |

its just madness, most of them will mount the megaphones outside the church so that people will hear them. I wonder how they will feel if other religion will do same |

peteregwu:peter u re misunderstanding me..am only advicing that speakers re just placed inside or within the church premises..not outside. |

peteregwu: so the power of a church is measured by how much noise and disturbance it can propagate? People like you need reorientation in the scriptures because your mentality on spirituality is flawed |

This is one prevailing issue every Government needs to take seriously, as the peace of neighborhoods has been snapped by noise-some religious rituals that one wonders why the competition. In Several place e.g Germany, this trend is illegal and we need to take a second look at this rather sacred but unfortunate part of our lives. If our religious piety actually translates to good citizenship that should be tolerated. Government should regulate the level of noise that should be allowed through the microphones and speakers. I ask myself if their God is deaf or if these noises produce piety among followers or intended proselytes, if the objective of such loud speakers is to convert listeners. I doubt if that is the case. In the F.C.T, the construction of worship centers is fast defacing the city and introducing newer dimensions of the abuse of the master-plan of the city-with such worship houses rising where they were not originally planned. Residential plots are being developed into religious neighborhood. The long term implication of this sad development is better imagined. The FCTA Development Control Department must be held accountable for abuse of the Abuja Master-plan 1 Like |

hifaif:I lolled to prevent further arguement. So by your view, it means you're against people who move about with microphones evangelising |

hifaif: It's only an eccentric that will use his or her business,whether church or whatsoever,to disturb other people's sleep. In Nigeria, religion has turned a lot of individuals into mere lunatics by the sort of funny things they believe,do or say. How can any sane person just decide to disturb the peace of his of her neighbors whether at night or daytime. We just need to get civilized in Nigeria. No one, I mean no one, dares disturb others peace for whatever reason in most advanced countries. If it ever happens, it just need one call to the police and they will rush down to seal off the nuisance premises in a jiffy. It's high time people in the developing world realized that, though they have every right to practice whatever they believe in, yet they have the responsibility to respect and desist from disturbing others with their businesses. O!! i wish i had my way as the Minister of Environment. |

See ehn @OP. I don't know how you feel, because there aint church in my hood. even though i do hear them shout "holy ghost fire" sometimes in the middle of the night...thats only if i av a sleepless night. |

Valued:Let me ask you. Do you agree that the use of force is a good way to convince anybody or the use of force a bad way? |
Re: Churches And Their Annoying Noise Making!! by Nobody: 5:09pm On Dec 07, 2014 |
Reyginus:The use of force is bad. Does public evangelisation with microphone involve the use of force? Are you not allowed to walk pass if you don't want to listen? Jesus Christ gave the great commission Himself to go into the world and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. |
