god in america GOD IS WATCHING

And keeping score?

One glance at this and I knew it was yours! It is an odd statement...who is painting the church? Is someone defacing their church? Where do you find this stuff?

The San Joaquin Valley of California is ripe for all kinds of images. I just cruise around and the stuff pops up regularly. The trick is to not get killed or maimed in some of these areas as they can be pretty rough.

 

You will note that the sign for the church (otherwise known as "churh") is in Spanish. I found myself wondering why the sign wasn't painted in both English and Spanish. Lack of space? Spanish speakers don't deface church walls? Whatever it is, I think one cannot help but wonder what has happened to our society and culture. I took the picture in a humorous vein, but it really is a sad commentary.

God may well be watching but clearly he is not spell checking.

That is one BIG RIG that the minister drives to the churh! So much for meek inheriting anything nowadays...

Not His job!

Yeah, well maybe he has a trailer to haul the flock around in.

Great find!

Why am I not surprised that you like this?

Interesting find and well seen.

 

Thank you for looking and commenting.

Gosh, you find the best stuff! Great image. Take care

It's my magic photo radar system. Bought it from Ritz Photo for $595.00! :))

Well seen and captured David. I really love stuff like this!

Thanks. I appreciate the visit. Take care.

I just took another look and noticed the barbed wire on top of the wall. Nothing makes Jesus smile like barbed wire! It made me think, though, if God is watching, why do they need the barbed wire--doesn't God smite anyone with lightning bolts anymore?

Well what I've been thinking is they need to take God off of guard duty, and get a few video surveillance cameras. They would still need the barbed wire, to keep the miscreants from stealing the cameras, but God could take a break from the sentry duty and spend more time saving the souls of those s.o.b. s who are doing the graffiti. But, then, what do I know? This is a complex theological issue. I did just have this flash of an image pass through my brain, where this picture takes place in a Muslim country, and there would be severed hands (lots of severed hands) laying all over in the grass by the wall. I just may have to do that one.

Perfect, Dave! One of your great finds. Warm regards...

that means they can paint the church when God is not watching. Since God always watches, that actually means "never". Clever dudes. You know, that place looks more like a truck shop or something, an image enhanced by the triple-decker barb wire. What happened to all the crosses? Is their church slogan

"Come in every Sunday to top up your energy while we rotate your tires." ? Hey, if Christ could heal instantly, maybe he can also rotate all truck tires instantly, too. V8 and peace to all. Cheers, Micheal

Thanks. I love these little gems when they pop up out of nowhere.

I knew all this would make perfect sense to you. I just knew it. One thing though. I'm not quite a Biblical scholar, but I don't believe that rotating tires was ever mentioned in the Bible. Not once!

Aaah, another typical Dave Meyer image. Someone used a can of spray paint to tell others not to use a can of spray paint. Hmmm! If this old wall had some interesting and colorful graffiti, it would actually be an improvement, in my opinion, and God would be pleased. But then again, what do I know. I haven't talked to her in a long, long time! B :)

Thanks. Me neither.

So funny....it's amazing how and why the contradiction could not reach the people painting this message...

Indeed.
