Almost can't believe:

Organizers for the 2008 Olympics in China have released their list of items banned from the Olympic village where the athletes will stay.

Among the "prohibited objects" -- Bibles.

The Catholic News Agency reports that the committee behind the Beijing games cited "security reasons" for the ban.

Athletes are also prohibited from bearing any kind of religious symbol at Olympic facilities.

I'm wondering if the Quran is also to be banned. Source: Cbn.com Tags: , , , ,
