A church in South Carolina is stirring things up with it’s marquee which reads:
OBAMA OSAMA
HUMM
ARE THEY BROTHERS
The ready-for-churchsigngenerator.com slogan is “not meant to be racial or political but rather to make people think. ‘His name is so close to Osama I have a feeling he might be Islamic therefore he doesn’t recognize Christ,’ Pastor Byrd said.”
Obama, of course, attends a church with a pastor who says things that this pastor probably wouldn’t like, but given all the negative attention that’s generated you have to wonder just how ignorant this Pastor Byrd really is. (Not to mention his flock, who voted unanimously to keep the sign displayed.)
Oh, by the way, this church has no black members.
H/T to SLOG.

since my Church sign currently reads
I won’t post my Church info in case someone from this Church gets upset we’re reaching out to those beyond our parish and community who might have a… different name!
.
that they are both my brothers.
So I guess they are related, in a way.
.
Not quite what the SC church had in mind, I’m thinking.
A photo of that sign would be a good start toward that church losing its tax-exempt status, if someone were inclined in that direction.

ARE THEY BROTHERS
“His name is so close I have a feeling he might be a Victorian serial killer therefore he doesn’t recognize Christ.”
DAVID BALMER JEFFREY DAHMER
ARE THEY BROTHERS
“His name is so close I have a feeling he might be a cannibal therefore he doesn’t recognize Christ.”
Would it be OK to call the Rev. Byrd an illiterate peasant? Or is the technical term, moron, more appropriate?
Fully expecting to see something about the FLDS church. So I was surprised.
And yes, Pastor Bryd is probably pretty ignorant
Besides, the interesting thing about this is what it tells us about some of the Bible Belt’s residents, people who are much more mainstream than a bunch of sad polygamists.
“hmmm” with a Southern drawl.
