Carrie: Well, maybe it’s not a good sign for the church, but…

JO: I figured it out - It’s like when you pick out a new car and the salesman tells you it’s a really good choice, to reassure you that you’ve picked well. Basically they’re selling past the close. Never a good technique.

I do see your point, but these signs are doing what they really intend: They are making people talk about it~ Christianity. We also have a little white church up the road that has message signs~ some good, some bad, BUT for the life of me I can’t remember any of the sayings~ Now that’s not a very good sign~ is it?

“Big god ass”…now THAT was funny! I’ve had similar thoughts about the free-lance biblical fact checking thing.

I giggle. Only you have thoughts of God sitting on your face!

I think the message marquee is for those who have NOT joined the church. They are attempting to provoke spiritual thought in non-Presbyterian church-goers. That is my take. I always crack a smile when I pass that same sign. They change their “message” every week or two with some typically un-profound saying. I remember before the wallet photo message, it read:

” If you think you may have done something wrong, you did.”

That just sucks. I hate the point of THAT!
