I would totally cancel my subscription. I'm in favor of advertisements for local churches, but the entire New Testament is beyond the pale.
These folks should feel free to make their publication free and post a prominent ad about where they're available. But to include them like an insert brings the editorial integrity of the paper into question.
Having visited Colorado Springs as a resident of Colorado, I can verify that it's probably the best place in the country to try this experiment. It tops even the Bible Belt of the super deep South, where I've also lived, for loud professions of Christianity.
I hope that even there this stunt will provoke sufficient concern to give other newspapers pause about selling out there integrity for far less than a regular advertiser would pay.
