Dumbest Protest Signs

Sex before marriage is man's greatest treasure.

...Fuck, it doesn't rhyme.

My church sign had a real doozy for a few weeks. One side of it said "What have you done for Jesus' sake?". The issue is that it's a Lutheran church, which is very firm about "grace and faith, not works". I thought it was kind of misleading about our teachings. Or was I too anal-retentive about it?

[ironbite]

Probably but a good form of anal-retentive.

No that's a pretty fair thing to get frustrated over.

A lot of churches claim to be "grace and faith" but in the end they're "oh, and works, too", even though they'll adamantly deny it.

at least the Catholic church is consistent in that aspect

Not really a sign, but y'know... couldn't find another place.

It looks like an air-dropped propaganda leaflet. Were there any planes passing overhead when you got it?

[Witchyjoshy]

What's it even supposed to be saying?  It's like "Here's a list of things I hate with no context except some guy's face that you can barely make out.  Go fuck yourself."

[Shane for Wax]

Not my picture. Someone I follow on tumblr found it. They said it's not the first she's seen, and it won't be the last. The fundies have been dropping them off around the city for a while.

I recognize it as coming from a Chick Tract - and I have to say, without the context it had in the tract it makes no sense.

Which is why it's in here.

Do any Chick tracts make any sense?

[Sigmaleph]

Somewhat. The things they say are incredibly stupid, but it is usually clear which stupid things they are saying.

[RavynousHunter]

I think its saying that the "I didn't know about the 'Good News'" defense doesn't cut it, because you're still a horrible sinning person who enjoys the occasional fuck and may or may not be a homosexual.  Kinda like how ignorance of the law isn't an excuse, except far more idiotic, not legally binding, and generally much more abhorrent.

[Skybison]

Heh, I got my first Chick Tract a few weeks ago.  Someone left them in the shopping carts of a wal mart, I got one about how the Catholic Church created and secretly controls Islam, Communism, Nazism, and the freemasons.  Also they killed Lincoln and JFK.  Also for some reason it started with a Pinky and the Brain reference.

Speaking of Nazis
