It was supposed to be a kind gesture to brighten up a hospital for patients.

You beat me to this one! They are moving furter away from Christianity and closer to Islamic rule. That quote in the article shows that they know that Islam is intolerant of other religions and they still bow to Islam.

Interesting that those thugs could only thing of paintings of churches as offensive. Had they ever heard of a painting of Christ, Mary or the saints?

Well then, one of the artists should paint a picture of those council members burning in the fire pits of hell. Wonder if they would except that.

Many artists could not understand why images of Christian buildings were banned, but those of other religions were welcome.
