It's why Electric Christians are so much better.

Take, for example, how this sign falls "flat".

“If Jesus could get his ass to church on Sunday, so can you.”

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that Jesus actually got his ass to church on Saturdays...

  1. "Mom, can I bring my ass to church next Sunday?"

    "Stop reading road signs, dear."

  2. I'm guessing this last sign is a Palm Sunday reference--thus, Sunday.
    Although... technically, it wasn't his--ahem--donkey that he rode. It was borrowed.

  3. So wait, if "Christians need fine tuning," then what's in store for Jews? Brake service? A new transmission?

  4. Technically his ass didn't go to church. It just brought him into town. So at the very least, we should take our asses into town on [Saturday].

  5. And forgetting the ass piece, Jesus didn't go to *Church* either (gasp). Being an observant Jew and all.

    Oy.

  6. Comma placement is so important in this sign. If you put two commas, after Christian and after pianos, then it means that Christians, like pianos, need frequent tuning. Drop one of those, and it just says Christians enjoy pianos so much that they need frequent tuning.

    Christians like pianos, need frequent tuning.

  7. Ricky, I think Jews might need a new testament, but I can't find that part at Pep Boys.
    Well, IC, the assembled Jewish community gathered to worship at the temple, the "qahal" (Hebrew) could be rendered in Greek as "ekklesia," which is typically rendered as "church" in the New Testament. Thus, Matthew 18:17's seeming anachronism "tell it to the church." (What do you mean I'm a geek?)
    But, as Jessy rightly points out, the ass wasn't likely ridden all the way to the temple.

  8. As I recall, the only time the adult Jesus went to the Temple, he raised so much hell they nailed his ass to a cross. Modern churches tend to overlook he did all of his preaching out in the real world.
