Remember what you allow the government or the town in this case to do, may be visited back upon you. Supposing a liberal town in Massachusetts, decides not to issue a building permit to a conservative church based strictly on the fact that a majority of the townspeople are liberals. Does the town have that right? If the church has all the necessary legal paperwork, documentation and funding to build the church and has purchased the land with it's own funds?? If you as a christian allow this to happen, be careful you might be next.
Actually, I'm from Massachusetts, and that pretty much happenend in my old hometown. A derivative of it also happened in Belmont, home town of former GOP Senatorial candidate Mitt Romney, whose fellow townsmen were all up in arms when Mitt built a beautiful Mormon temple and wanted to put a big gold tower/steeple/whatever on it. In both instances the rights of the different church groups were upheld over the objections of the communities involved---the objections, of course, cloaked in zoning law issues.
