First of all, you live in a hose? That's odd. Secondly, find yourself a lawyer who is willing to try to sue a not for profit, fiduciary institution such as a church, and then tell me who they are so I can laugh. In order to sue some one, or some organization, it helps if that person or organization has money. A church is a non-profit organization that does not have money, and is immune from most civil claims in court, as they have no financial backing. The only church you could sue, and possibly win money from would be the Catholics.

This should be a question for lawyers, not Christians. How would I know if you could successfully sue a Chinese-speaking church?

Ok, good luck with that.
You may find the Catholic church has deeper pockets, some of their literagy is in latin. Maybe you could sue and become Pope.
Or maybe try one of those Churches where they speak in tounges, they creap me out.

Typical American!!!
Don't know about your getting rich though ... if you take their "Chinese" church probably you would have to give them the "4 other churches" in compensation.
>ill get my lawyer
Are you ill (sick)?
Oh yes, of course!!

Yeah, sure.
What do you God would do to you to make sure you never get to first base with this?
You remind me of 2 Tim. 3:12-13
Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. [13] But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

your going to sue a bunch of chinese priests? that's kinda low, why can't you just learn chinese? if your going to go someplace where people are speaking their native language, in china town for pete's sake, don't make them suffer.

Nope, they have freedom of religion and can choose to worship however they want. No lawyer will be crazy enought o take that case. You should be ashamed of yourself for even thinking that.

Sounds idiotic to me. But you live in Chicago - you'd probably win.

it won't work.
I'm Canadian but I'm faily certain the US constitution guarantees freedom of religious expression, which means they can have a service in any language they want.

First, you'll have to perfect your English skills or they'll never believe you.
Secondly, do you have nothing better to do?
