Especially those with sayings such as: "You can dress the part and still have a filthy heart" or "Are you looking for a sign? Well, this might be it."

As long as they make a point, either to make you think or make you smile, they can only help.

Sometimes they make me think, laugh or shake my head, especially when the sign makes no sense at all.
Saw one billboard today that was pretty good for a religious sign - it said "Got Faith?" which was a cute play on the "Got Milk?" commercial and didn't really have to tie into any one religion.

They are mostly harmless, but I think the need for cleverness betrays a certain kind of desperation to "reach" people. As a Christian, I find them a bit shallow.
Enjoy the link.

Some make me smile and some make me think - both of which is great...the ones that tell me I'm going to hell and try to drag me into their church while I drive by at 55 mph, those annoy me.

Happy. Why? There's nothing wrong with advertising for a TV show, what's wrong with advertising for a church?
