Christian couple in court over comments about Islam
by Jenna Lyle https://www.legal-project.org/569/christian-couple-in-court-over-comments-about Excerpt: Christian hotel owners Ben and Sharon Vogelenzang go on trial today for comments they made about Islam. The couple, who own the Bounty House Hotel in Liverpool, are being prosecuted for a religiously aggravated public disorder after a Muslim guest complained they had made offensive comments to her on March 20. They allegedly described Muslim dress for women as "bondage" and described the Prophet Mohammed as a "warlord". Their legal defence is being funded by the Christian Institute. Its director Colin Hart is appealing to Christians to pray for the couple as they stand before Liverpool Magistrates' Court today and tomorrow.
