DC church opposes bike lane.
I'm not sure where this should start out before it ends up in P&R but figured this would be a good place to begin.
Church opposes DC's proposed bike lane because ?rights of religious freedom?

It's a ridiculous argument. Lack of access to parking does not infringe upon their freedom of religion. They're grasping at straws.

The original thread seemed destined for a one-way trip to P&R.

Take a look at my response. It is #17 in this thread: https://www.bikeforums.net/advocacy-s...s-freedom.html

Fun thread. The church looks like a house. Kinda small for so many parishioners. And yes - destined to P & R, or other.

The path of "righteousness" is on the bicycle path to glory - in my new SUV, or Lear Jet. Sorry had to add this in. And yes - this is headed soon to P & R.
