Cell Phones, Worship and Eternal Damnation

Here's something funny that was reported in the February 8th issue of The Christian Century (p. 9):
In a video shown by the Westminster Presbyterian Church, Burbank, California, congregants are reminded to turn off all cell phones and all electronic and messaging devices. The video warns that a fine of $25 will be assessed for a cell phone that goes off during announcements, $50 if it goes off during prayer concerns. Anyone whose phone goes off during the sermon... is going to hell.
I think the last part was meant as a joke... (not a bad fundraising device, though).

  1. Cut, Sean. But I think you mean a fine of $25, not a few of $25.
