"Imagine there's no heaven..."

The carillon at the Anglican Cathedral in Liverpool will play John Lennon's "Imagine" as part of an arts festival this week. A cathedral spokesman indicated that they had carefully considered the sensitive nature of the lyrics, then offered this remarkably progressive comment:

"But we recognise its power to make us think. As a cathedral we do not shrink from debate. We recognise the existence of other world views," added the cathedral spokesman.

Kudos.
