			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s not just New Labour and local council apparatchiks who despise Christians, the Americans are getting in on the act too.</p>
<p><strong class="Dateline">SAN DIEGO &#8212; </strong>A local pastor and his wife claim they were interrogated by a San Diego County official, who then threatened them with escalating fines if they continued to hold Bible studies in their home, 10News reported.</p>
<p>Attorney Dean Broyles of The Western Center For Law &amp; Policy was shocked with what happened to the pastor and his wife. Broyles said, &#8220;The county asked, &#8216;Do you have a regular meeting in your home?&#8217; She said, &#8216;Yes.&#8217; &#8216;Do you say amen?&#8217; &#8216;Yes.&#8217; &#8216;Do you pray?&#8217; &#8216;Yes.&#8217; &#8216;Do you say praise the Lord?&#8217; &#8216;Yes.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>The county employee notified the couple that the small Bible study, with an average of 15 people attending, was in violation of County regulations, according to Broyles.</p>
