bell ringing or loud speaker

[billyo]

a call to prayer has been by bell ringing for 100s of years in uk and europe, should we change it to loud speaker, is one better than the other, or should we care, and have both, or is the bishop making mischief hatter you can have your bell rope pulled ,but can u do that with a loud speaker

The one with the loudspeaker is a "call" to prayer, the Bell ringing is a notification that worship is to take place and come along if you "wish", there's a big difference.
If I buy a house "near" a church that has been there for hundreds of years I have no grounds to complain about the bell ringing, especially if my house was built AFTER the church, but if I buy a house away from all places of worhip say in town and then some nice people CONVERT or Build a NEW place of worship near my existing house, and they AMPLIFY AAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAA for miles around I think I would have grounds to be well ****ed off.
