bumper sticker (although there are too many words) or t-shirt.

On the other hand, someone would interpret "fruits" to mean gays, what homosexuals were called back in the 60s.

"God Wants Spiritual Fruits, Not Religious Nuts"
Buttons are also available.
You can get the button at www.evolvefish.com

Sorry, but while I do have the sticker, I can't recall who makes it.
You might try the Links section of DU and click under merchandise or stickers. Happy hunting! I know it's there somewhere.

3. Yeah I attend a very liberal Presbyterian church
My pastor flat out told me that the Bible can not be taken literally and religious fantacism is just as bad as terrorism.

10. This has got to be a protestant phenomenon
Because I live in a heavily Catholic area (I can name about 15 Catholic churches in a 10 mile radius) and I never see signs like this. All of these churches are protestant right?
