An atheist group is gloating on its website over the revenge it has taken on Christ Cathedral in Columbus, Ohio.
The church, which owns a billboard leased to Clear Channel Outdoor advertising, discovered that an atheist advertisement had been placed on their sign by the Freedom From Religion Foundation.
They had it removed as offensive.
The billboard featured the smiling image of Dylan Galos, a local college student, proclaiming the atheist message: “I can be good without God.”
It's really not a commercial business. They are not out there to sell a product but to win a soul. There is no monetary gain in that.
Uhh, on the contrary. Those souls they "win" tend to donate money and property to the "church". So yes, it is indeed a commercial enterprise. Always has been.

I wouldn't say anyone was gloating...the church got what it deserved....the fact that they've not paid taxes, and now must ...has nothing to do with revenge...but everything to do with being honest...something churches are "supposedly" all about.

Do they charge a fee for usage of this board? If so it is a commercial enterprise. If not, they would seem to have a problem vetting the usage that they have allowed. Doesn't look good either way.

Indeed. Either both are entitled to do it or neither are. Personally I'd prefer reasoned argument to whitewashing out posters we don't agree with.
When they have no counter point they are left with their bucket of whitewash.
