Foisting their beliefs on the unsuspecting public

[chicken]

There are a lot of jesus nuts around here. It does not endear me to this city, let me tell you.

First there's some guy in a neighboring suite who parks in the lot at our office, whose truck has a Jesus is the Answer! license plate. (Vomit)

Then there's the church down the street which has funky sayings on its outside marquee that say things like "Stop, Drop, & Pray!". Keep in mind, this in not hicksville rural Florida, this is Winter Park, one of the most liberal, hippy, vegetarian, college town suburban environments of Orlando. So of course this is especially surprising.

To cap it all off, on the way to the Mall, you have to drive past The Holy Land Experience because the back of their buildings are right up near the exit ramp to the mall (hmmmmm). Normally this isn't a problem because those are just blank backs of buildings.

However, at this time of year, they put up a huge, HUGE neon sign reading "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JESUS!". Once again, gack.

Fortunately, all the people at work are the opposite of this -- they are all Buddhists, atheists, or non-practicing whatevers.

Luckily in UK people who go to church tend to keep it on the down low because religious types are considered a bit freaky by the majority. It's great. :)

We should TOTALLY move there. PLEASE. We're such Anglophiles anyway, it isn't a stretch.
