Too Christian for CBS and NBC

It's old news, but two of the major US networks (CBS and NBC) have refused to show an advert for the United Church of Christ, seemingly because the church is too Christian.

The debut 30-second commercial features two muscle-bound "bouncers" standing guard outside a symbolic, picturesque church and selecting which persons are permitted to attend Sunday services. Written text interrupts the scene, announcing, "Jesus didn't turn people away. Neither do we." A narrator then proclaims the United Church of Christ's commitment to Jesus' extravagant welcome: "No matter who you are, or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here."
