Exactly. So they have ONE show. Why not?

So you admit Songs of Praise promotes Christianity?

No. Broadcasting a television show about Christianity = / = promotion.

As I said earlier, that means all television is about promotion. I suppose Broadchurch promotes child murder?

The show is a full broadcast of a religious ceremony. How is that not a show about Christianity?

I never said it wasn't a show ABOUT christianity.

That's not promotion.

We also have shows about property buying and about music and about politics and about almost everything else in the world. Television has one television show that features a church and hymns and suddenly it's a huge trailer to lure people into a cult?

Thats not what you said your previous post.

The other shows mentioned all give counter coverage to the topics they promote. They are not just a celebration of a ceremony.

A show simply being about something does not automatically make it "promotion".

Do they? "Adele at the BBC" featured sections dedicated to other available music to buy did it?

What "counter coverage" would you have Songs of Praise feature? A lecture by an atheist about why they don't follow Christianity? What would that achieve. The show is made FOR Christians. Are they not allowed to have a show for them to enjoy?
