If they built a new church in a residential neighborhood, the neighbors have a right to complain... I don't care if they are worshipping God or if it is a Crack house, people have a right to peace and quiet when they are trying to sleep. Just because some people like to make noise until after midnight, does not mean that they have a right to keep those people awake that are in bed by 9pm every night.
I am not going to stay up past my bedtime to go to a bar, or to a sporting event, and I am not going to stay up past my bedtime to go to church. I guarantee I would be the first person signing that petition if it was in my neighborhood... but I'm also a person who will not mow my lawn before 8am just to be considerate of my neighbors.
Even when people have parties on the weekend, it is fairly normal to ask them to turn the music down after 10pm in most civilized communities.
