The only true religious sign I have seen came from my old church (when I
used to go) saying "Thou Shalt Not Park Here."
Since I moved, however, there seem to be religious fanatics who take things
a little bit more personally than just painting a billboard. The first
month I was in Manhattan there was a man on the subway preaching about God
and Evolution. "Man wants to believe he descended from an animal so he can
ACT like an animal..."
Just last month there was a painted car gliding down sixth Avenue with a
man screaming through the window on a megaphone preaching the bible like a
public service announcement. ____________________ "Truth is always on the move. It is always somewhere, but never in the

I know about the whole sign thing. Believe me - I live near a town with at
least seven churches within the six mile radius of it. People insist that
the "Truth" is only by God. But logically, the truth is in the eye of the
believer. I'm opinionated and have my views, but those are only in my
eyes.

i saw a bumper sticker once that said "i found jesus, hes in my trunk".
when i was a christian (methodest), we had the parking lot up close to the
church, and then another one down a hill a ways. the one further down was
the "super christian parking lot". ____________________ We are working against the cure, for the cure of anything is death |

We had a "jesus is coming, are you ready?" sign... I waited for everyone to
read it and then asked the guy next to me on the bus if he had a hammer and
some "2 by 4"'s I could borrow... well, I thought it was appropriate. ____________________ "Be neither a master nor a slave to pudding, for there is a time to gather,

There was one by my old house in Oklahoma that one day said:
"Church on the run"
I was trying to get a bunch of my large viking looking friends to bring
over their axes and swords so we could get a picture of them looking
menacing around the sign. Never did it ____________________ Suicide Hotline - Please Hold |

"Stop, drop and roll won't help you in Hell."
My husband saw that bumper sticker on a car just below a christian fish
symbol, and got a cute idea. He said we ought to get a fish symbol and add
a small fishing pole with a hook in the fish's mouth. Then that got me to
thinking that it might also be cute to have a skillet with the fish symbol
sitting in the skillet. ____________________ "When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've

You know what really gets me about those Jesus fish? The ones that say
"TRUTH" that eat the Darwin fish with legs? They're using Darwinism in an
attempt to disclaim Darwinism. ____________________ Today's liberals are tomorrow's conservatives. When my generation is the

Using an opponent's points is standard procedure in any persuasive
argument. If you don't address the opposition, it weakens your own
statements.
But all the different kinds of fish bug me. They got real old, real fast.

How's this one?
On one side the sign read, "What's missing in Ch__ch?"
On the other, "U R"
Gack.
Or better yet:
Jesus: He’s holding your atoms together.
The best vitamin for a Christian is B1.
Or my fave:
It’s hard to stumble when you’re on your knees.

And all of these things are some of the less nauseating reasons that I
don't associate my christianity with anything organized. But, there are
much better reasons out there... oh yes, there are |

unfortunately i didnt see this one, i read it in a book of celebrties
after dinner stories.
a pastor was trying to find a way to get people into his church and decided
to get a slogan. he settled on a catchy one:
if you are tired of sin then come on in.
unfortunately within a week was written underneath:
but if you aren't call julie on 08941265379

I am a Christian but also want to study the actual history of the faith,
mostly in the early times. I hate the people who do the God signs. The
Bible is more than a quote book that can be used to make others feel bad.
If they actually read the Bible it would contradict them if they really
wanted to look at it that deeply. As the old saying goes even the Devil
can quote scripture. Oh one other thing the laws handed down by Moses were
not just the 12 commandments there were like 613 I think. ____________________ \\ |
