Truth In Advertising

Church marquees I'd like to see:

  • "It would be nice to have your soul, but we'll settle for your money"
  • "Half of the sincerity, and none of the comfort"
  • "We dilute the gospel to keep you in attendance"
  • "We don't wear vestments, we wear sheep's clothing"
  • "We don't need no stinkin creeds"
and, drum roll please:
  • "We don't believe in preaching about sin"
Any to add???

Dedicated to public school, "Just find a way to jump through hoops, so you get a good grade. You don't need to learn anything."

How about...

"Come reflect on your faith. Whatever you believe, we'll reflect it back to you - it's all good!"

And one from National Lampoon's Radio Hour...

"Light your faith and you can light the world. Set fire to a church of your choice."

*snicker!*
