Christians Assert Rights In Several Cases In Britain

Cross Rhythms today carries a review of a number of pending cases in Britain in which Christians are challenging limitations on expression of their religious beliefs. Two of the cases involve controversies over names-- one in which the Exeter Christian Union is being forced by University officials to change its name to the Evangelical Christian Union, and another in which Christian groups are challenging the Voluntary Euthanasia Society's change of name to Dignity In Dying as violative of Britain's trademark law. Other cases involve the right to wear religious-themed jewelry in various settings.
