Funny, Cool, and Thought-Provoking Signs That Deal with God and Religion

Compilation of some profound (as well as some very funny) photos of religious signs from unlikely sources. ..

If there is a God, wouldn’t he want us to actively think about the “big” questions instead of just accept whatever we have been exposed to as the “Truth”?

I think this addresses the central issue with religions today–the whole “my religion is right and yours is wrong” mentality. I believe religions are all part of the same dialogue that attempt to answer the big questions; they are all talking about the same mystery.

I like this sign because it makes God accessible. I think religions are frequently offputting and unpleasant for many people because God is presented as an entity to be feared because he judges and condemns.

Whether you believe in God or not, God will have the last word. We are ultimately not in control. So then we must ask what kind of God God is–is he a loving entity or just a blind force of nature? In any case–he, she, it–is ultimately in control.

Translation: “God is an atheist.” Hmm, makes you think. If God is God, then does God believe in himself? Did God create himself? Ah, the philosophical implications are endless . . .

There is so much emphasis placed on which religion is the correct one–which religion is True in the grandest sense of the term. One of the central focuses in the religion I was exposed to as a child, the Latter-Day Saints faith, is that it is the only True Church. That’s always been very unpalatable to me. Nevertheless, most religions claim exclusive knowledge.

At their best, atheists are often quite funny. They bring a sense of humor to religious questions that is often lacking in religious dialogue. At their worst, they sometimes attack and belittle the big questions.

Apparently, faith did not see these store owners through the hard economic times.

The two parts of this sign are good advice no matter what your belief system. If we could all be kind to each other, wouldn’t we pretty much solve the bulk of the issues the world faces? I heard somewhere that there is only one message in the Bible: Love your neighbor as yourself and the rest is just commentary. I like that a lot.

The second “carpe diem” aspect of the sign (There’s probably no God. Now stopy worrying and enjoy your life) is also great advice. I think worrying and fear are the downside of many religions. It often seems to be the case that when truths are institutionalized, the truths become fossilized and joyless.

This sign made me laugh. I think God may indeed be bored with me and all my questions.

    These are really interesting. Loving the “God is your homie” one and the one where God is an atheist is certainly thought provoking. A really exciting and well researched article!
