We\'ve all seen church signs that are corny and often demeaning. This petition is asking churches to stop because it drives people away from the church and further separates Christians and the people they are trying to reach. This petition is an attempt to get the attention of the many, many churches out there that are tarnishing the Christian reputation and harming the Christian cause with their marquee signs. When you sign this petition you are asking churches to stop putting out theologically weak and belittling messages like: \"reason is the greatest enemy faith has\", \"tired of being a loser turn to God\", \"the infallible word of God taught hear (sic)\", \"worry: a darkroom where negatives develop!\". I think you get my point. Please sign the petition and pass it on to your friends, these signs are more of a menace to the Christian cause than most realize.

They think they are being clever but they just look completely out of touch with reality.

Please stop. My kids always ask what the signs mean and it makes me look like an idiot trying to explain them.

The ones about politics are the worst. Keep the signs for service times and leave the cheesy jokes off.
