First Batch of Signs

OK, kids, here we go. The first batch of Crummy Church Signs rescued from the old fan-favorite website "Kudzoo Jesus". More to follow, as well as new signs with new reviews. Enjoy.





“A family altar can alter a family”

Especially when little Timmy gets sacrificed. THAT will change the whole complexion of a quiet evening at home, let me tell you.



“God is alive and God lives”

Really? He does both at the very same time?



“Worry is interest paid on trouble before it is due.”

Too true. Now maybe you can help explain my taxes. It must be easier than figuring out this sign.



“Can’t sleep? Try counting your blessings!”

OK, here goes:

1) My church doesn’t put up cheesy slogans like this…..

Zzzzzzzzz



“Temptation is an itch you must not scratch”

And it’s just as easy as that!



“Stand for Something”

Yes!! Anything at all will apparently do!



“The difference between a stumbling block and a stepping stool is in how you use it”

Actually, no, they are two totally different things.



“Soul food served here”

submitted by Kevin and Shay Thomas, Pensacola FL

Man, I WONDERED why the Lord’s Supper was deep-fried today.

I wonder if this church has a church bus. They could call it (all together now)…….. "The Soooooooooooul Traaaaaaaaaiin."



“Under the same management for 2000 years”

submitted by Scott Dowling, Nashville, TN

Actually, this one fails on a technicality. Christ has been around longer than 2000 years. (see John 1:1 and the rest of the Bible).



“We should be more concerned with the Rock of Ages than with the Age of Rocks”

This is a sign specifically reprimanding the 0.000025 percent of the population that actually makes it a habit to study rocks. Couldn’t we shoot for perhaps a wider audience and lose the pseudo-cleverness?



“Opinions are like noses; everybody has one”

Email me at joelbezaire@yahoo.com if you can explain to me what the heck this has to do with Christ, Christianity, the Bible, the Church, God, the Holy Spirit, or anything else along these lines.



“Civilization is a voyage, not a harbor.”

Submitted by Steve and Trish Forsey, Burlington, Ontario, Canada

To quote my wife: “I don’t understand this! What does it mean?”

I don’t know either, sweetheart. In fact, it makes my head hurt.



“Hell has no thermostat”

…..and heaven has no church signs.



“Diamonds are chunks of coal that stuck to their job”

submitted by Jennifer Bezaire, Smyrna, TN

So, to become all God wants you to be, just sit there and let it gradually happen over a long period of time. Yeah, that’s biblical.



“Nobody laid eggs for your salvation.”

Submitted by Scott Dowling, Nashville, TN

Seen during the Easter season, one can only assume that this sign is referencing how hunting for Easter eggs has nothing to do with the real meaning of Easter. Even though that is true, this is still one of the most awful, terrible, malodorous, atrocious, and ridiculously bad church signs I have ever had the misfortune of associating with. Somebody laid some terrible eggs on this sign.



“It’s time to get aggressive with God!”

Submitted by Emily Bezaire, Nashville, TN

Shades of high school basketball: “Guys, God is KILLING us on the offensive boards!! I need somebody to get in there and put a butt on Him!! Box Him out!! Get a wide base, get that rear out there and push Him outta there!!!”



“God has a big eraser.”

…to rub you out when you sin, sucka!! (…or, to rub away your sins. This sign isn’t really specific.)

  2. I am not sure where to enter other 'found' signs on this blog, so I will do so as a comment.

    The Sign: "There are no Atheists in Hell!" Sooooo, if I chose atheism, I will not go to hell since there are none there?

  3. “Under the same management for 2000 years”

    [Actually, this one fails on a technicality. Christ has been around longer than 2000 years.]

    I thinks the sign refers to the church, which was instituted roughly 2000 years ago.
