isreal israel israel, you ARE the instigator....

i don't know, but i am guessing that those signs were paid for with tax dollars that werent collected.

i have to wonder if it is about making the world a better place or an ad to fill pews and coffers in this age of science and reason.

ditch the supernatural and say stuff like
'be nice, its contagious'
or
'hey, give em a break, it might be you tomorrow'

and i am all the way on board.

but

how would you feel if a muslim group put up billboards with quaint quips from Allah? and even if you dont have a problem with it, how long do you think it would take for them to be reduced to cinders by proud god fearing flag waving americans?

and if god speaks on billboards, the sky demands equal attention.

my sign - "one word: dinosaurs"

have good day.

namaste, motherfucker.

I wonder if people would be this upset if it was a different religious group, besides Christians, doing this? What if it was a Hindu group? If anyone said anything against them, then the media and public would label them as discriminating? Although I'm not a religous person, it bugs me that it is seemingly OK to discriminate against Christian groups.

THANKS to you too!!!

Yeah, it's really GREAT when some yahoo decides he wants to speak on behalf of God.

Perhaps you miss the point here.

Just like one-liners from a movie, when quoted, bring up a mental picture of the scene (or actors) involved...and the scenario that is happening at that moment, these roadway signs stir the conscience for those who have this upbringing and belief. It starts a person thinking, and perhaps brings out their better side.

For those who haven't had that upbringing, then it does nothing either good, nor bad. It's just amusing perhaps.

OK, I never got the part about "fearing god". If you're really christian, shouldn't you LOVE god? You do what he says because you love him, and it's the Right Thing To Do. But fear him? What's the difference between "Fear God" and "Fear Stalin", "Fear Hitler", "Fear the US Government?" or even "Fear Your Parents?" In those cases, you do what your told for fear of punishment, when with the first two, it's probably NOT the right thing to do, and the third it might be at least a distasteful thing to do.

For that matter, most or all of what Allah asks you to do is pretty reasonable. The evil things done or ordered in the name of religion (Christian, Muslim, or otherwise) are based on misinterpretation of the written Word or simple greed on the part of the religious leaders.

Of course, given that the word was written by man (even if dictated by higher authority), much could have been lost in transcription or translation.

Man, but am I on a weird roll tonight. Musta been because I spent the afternoon at Google (yes, literally at their campus - Building "Pi"). Maybe it was their cafeteria food. Tasted OK, especially the 3.14159....

reply]all the problems we are having in the world these days with terrorists are because of religion...isn't the muslim religion a branch of judao/christian? it seems lately that the christians and jews have got along fairly well in the last 100 years or so..the christians are even putting up a better fight over the 10 commandments than the jewish folks in Alabama(?)...anyway....the way i see it GOD came to man in a image he could understand..it just so happens that the most popular version is the medditeranean version...if you look at all the religions that speak of love and peace they all have the same theme....one supreme being and a bunch of lesser beings doing his bidding Romans and Greeks had zeus and all the lesser gods, jews/christians/muslims...have GOD and all his angels/profits, the american indians have the Great Spirit, with lesser spirits for everyone and everything...its all the same...just the people who spread the message/dreams/visions had to explain it in a way that culture would understand...bottom line is we all share the same dream...now lets move on from there

Billboards are getting attention in Arizona.

I always like the sign on I-94 going west into North Dakota from Minnesota... Welcome to North Dakota, mountain removal project completed 20,000 BC.

That had to be one of the cooler signs I have seen.


For God so senteth ye glaciers to smite the rocks. And looking upon it he say that it was good, flat... but good.
