The Church of England commissioned the Lord’s Prayer advertisement, which was cleared for screening by the Cinema Advertising Authority and the British Board of Film Classification. It is the cinema chains themselves who have decided that they will not screen the advertisement.
According to the Guardian, the Odeon, Cineworld, and Vue chains, who control over 80 percent of U.K. cinemas, have refused to show the advert because they believe that the Lord’s Prayer “carries the risk of upsetting, or offending, audiences.”
As can be seen the advert features a variety of people, including the Archbishop of Canterbury, reciting the Lord’s Prayer and is designed to encourage prayer. The BBC reports that the Church of England is “disappointed and bewildered” by the cinema chain’s decision to ban the advert.
Digital Cinema Media, an agency who handle advertising for the three cinema chains, made the decision to ban the advert because they claim that the Lord’s Prayer might be offensive to people of different faiths or who have no faith.
