Bumpersticker seen today: "God Forgive America"
and it had an American flag on it too. That's all it said. Pretty compelling.

And it was here in NC (although a pretty progressive city in NC).

Whoa.

2. Wow, nice.
I kinda like that one, as far as religious/nationalistic stickers go. The combo that always blows my mind? The "Something Christian" sticker right next to the "Power of Pride" sticker. Um, hello, sin of pride, anyone??

9. That would've been my 2nd guess
since there's a university or two over there. Great bumper sticker.

8. The car has a old Nader/LaDuke sticker, and a newer Dean sticker
and now this sticker, which looked brand new.

I'm guessing the war.

18. Nobody needs permission or forgiveness for
exercising their right to end an unwanted pregnancy.

11. What about this for a bumper sticker
Jesus was a Liberal; vote democratic Do you think it might get the right wing Christians to think just a bit. Yes, maybe, just maybe, Jesus was/is a liberal.:think: :think:

23. my guess is a touch of anti-democracy, pro-theocracy
Edited on Mon Jun-21-04 02:42 PM by arcane1
and a desire to take us back to the glorious Days of Yore(tm)

ironically enough, back when the Pledge of Allegiance did NOT include "under God" :crazy:

15. I see that, too
Isn't it a little presumptous to tell God whom to bless? Sheesh.

There is a car in my parking structure that has a sticker that says "Lord Protect Me From Your Followers". I love that.

16. Never Mind
I meant isn't it a little presumptous to think that America would be in the position to be blessing God. I'm getting my Christian bumperstickers all confused in my heathen mind.

21. It could mean something else
It could be one of those fundies who thinks God needs to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.

24. I saw a disturbing sticker yesterday
"I flew 10,000 miles to smoke a camel." Picture to left of turban wearing man on top of camel, crosshairs overtop.

I got in front of him in traffic so he could see my Kerry sticker and US Marine Corp. sticker.
