Can condo board forbid a weekly prayer meeting in community room when no one else is using the room and when the board originally gave permission?

We believe this was caused by one member of the board who shouldn’t even be on the board. He was voted off previously because of the severe financial damage he caused the building during his reign of terror which included screaming at owners, continually lying, i.e. anytime he wanted something the owners didn’t want – he would just say it was a NYS law. He was reappointed against the will of 80% of the building owners who tried to get rid of him but were manipulated into keeping him.
Also of note, there are daily card games including a weekly high stakes poker game that no one has objected to.

Your policy needs to be content-neutral. If you allow unit owners to use the community room, you can't say, "You can use it for a book club meeting but not a prayer meeting." So long as the proposed activity is legal, not excessively noisy, and not disruptive or dangerous to other residents, you should allow it.
