And living in the United States doesn't require a Green Card.


Sorry. Another analogy.

I live in the US legally, and I don't have a Green Card. I have a Visa.

What's your point?

I don't see anything wrong with the sign.
It actually fits right in with what the Bible says.
People should not protest it for religious reasons.

Yeah, I thought about adding the visa option as well after the fact.

My point? That just as there is more than a way to accomplish something, like living in the U.S., there is more than a way to be a good person.

Now, there are people in the country illegally, and there are those who have followed the legal way. They're both in the U.S...

But the person with the Green Card or the visa is in an advantageous position in the eyes of authority.

Thus my analogy.

I agree with you.

Not only Christians are good people.

I agree, it's a bit of an eyesore. Not quite as engaging as the atheist bus campaign in Britain, although I think it makes its point well without offending.

How fitting it would be to find out Wes had been EE_EE's sock puppet all along. giggle

Doubt it. I don't find Wes morally bankrupt and utterly repugnant.
