Two things this story gets me to wondering:
Why don't some of our good Christian brethren out there in Bonita car pool to the Bible study to save a bit of gas?
Pete, why did you argue that you need a permit to engage in a simple activity of free men and women going about their business?
Given the complaint, and the counter complaint by the people charged, the state backed off.
If one must get a permit to have a bible study, you set up a non trivial infringement of the establishment clause, which works more than one way.
One last point, for the person hosting the bible study: love your neighbor as yourself, and work with making peace with the local neighbors over the parking issue.
This takes me back to the car pooling thought.
Is it really that hard?
