Church sign slogans.
Here in Virginia you pass by a church on every other block. Almost all of them have something supposedly witty, or just plain nauseating to say on their sign. Post annoying or stupid things you've seen on these signs or pics if you have 'em.
This pic was the inspiration for the thread. I snapped this while driving around for work today in Norfolk.

Translation: if you haven't given complete control of your mind to the church you are not a good enough christian... pass the collection plate.







































Everyone knows thinking and religion mix as well as oil and water.
Hey yeah , it's even on that TV .... the FCC is the fucking devil ! Well ain't it ?
There's a local asshat used car dealer that always has religious messages on his sign. By the way, I know of a few people who went there looking to buy/sell a car. He tried to rip them off. Some Christian, huh?
I think this really fits here like a butt on a chamber-pot:

Unfortunately, things happening inside the building are never as funny as the signs outside.
Here, in central Europe aren't such signs, they would be anyway probably considered as ridiculing the faith, which basically is, what they do.
I believe with the advent of acid, we discovered new ways to think and it has to do with piecing together new thoughts of mind. Why is it that people are so afraid of it ? What is it about it that scares people so deeply? Because they are afraid that there is more to reality than they have ever confronted. That there are doors that they are afraid to go in and they don't want us to go in there either because if we go in, there we might learn something that they don't know. And that makes us a little out of their control."

Here's a sign...
Have You Been Touched By Jesus?
Call 1-800-Sexual-Assault
or
Let Jesus Inside You...At Least the Tip
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” Yoda
There's a car dealership in Cornelia, Georgia that has a radio ad on the local country station. It's a typical deep south used car commercial until the last ten seconds, when the guy says, "Also, remember to read James "something-or-other" every day. That's James "something-or-other." I can't recall what verse it is he wants us to read.
Used car salesman, country music, and Jesus. Welcome to the deep south.
If superior creatures from space ever visit earth, the first question they will ask, in order to assess the level of our civilization, is: 'Have they discovered evolution yet?' -- Richard Dawkins

Yeah, there's more than 1 sign to pick from.
AWE! That completely ruins it for me! I actually thought it was a real sign.
I think the ones posted before mine are real, as they don't have the churchsigngenerator.com logo on.

Meh, I thought it was funny...and if you don't then you can sit on a seatless bicycle.
<<---- I've had the church sign generator as my avatar for nearly a year now (I think). The site has a ton of great real church sign pictures as well which are funny to read.
A church near my house just put up a sign that says "There is nothing too hard for God" I just want to write on the sign "Why won't god heal amputees?"
"It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan
Yeah, I'd LOVE to put some of my own slogans on some of those real church signs!
I've thought long and hard about making up some stickers to post on those signs, and around town like:
Jesus $ave$
with a little catch phrase underneath like:
Pass the collection plate
or
Cause the church aint rich enough yet
or
Your pastor needs a new cadillac!
I know I have some better ones written down somewhere, but I can't think of them right off the top of my head.
"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding" - Proverbs 3:5
I despise people who follow such idiocy, mindless golems.
Ecrasez l'infame!
The church sign I drive by every day to work currently has this:
"What you see is usually what you were looking for."
I.E. Believe what you want to believe
Dumb bastards
Science. It works, bitches.
"I'd take the awe of understanding over the awe of ignorance any day."
Douglas Adams
I just noticed this a few days ago:
By a Church not too far from my house, a sign says:
Apparently God uses MySpace! AND, he personally writes messages on Church signs now!
This isn't a fake, it's completely real.

Also, there was one clever one that I saw recently in a church that is down the street from me. "Now open between easter and christmas!" I liked it.
