2. that's great

*LMAO*

"You just don't use God's name that way," Richard said. "It should not be taken lightly and casually. It is sacred. There are consequences to doing something like this. Judgment can come on these who use the Lord's name in such a vain fashion."

Yeah, you wish, cowboy.

5. My favorite is "Don't make me come down there!"

I'm thinking that's a pretty empty threat these days. I mean, nuclear wars, and genocides and all, and no god coming down here yet. But we're supposed to think a couple of gay guys getting married is enough to get his almighty godpanties in a bunch? Right.

6. that is tacky

I do disagree with the restaurant's use of that billboard

as much I dislike the fundies, I still respect the fact that they have faith--as twisted as their belief system is

8. I don't know if it's in good taste BUT

weeks ago I traveled to North Louisiana and I noticed that God was buying a lot of billboard space up there. None of the messages were quotes from things God said in the bible or anything. They were just things that people had decided that God would say.

Personally I find that just as offensive. Who are they to put words in "God's" mouth? I began to contemplate putting our own messages from God up there.

Because of this, I find these signs amusing. Probably not a good idea for an ad campaign, but entertaining.

I would have just kept it simple though. "EAT AT MOE'S. - God"
