Here’s a Disturbing Sentiment for You

December 6th, 2007

Church sign I see on my way to work:

Gifts are placed under a tree.

The greatest gift hung from a tree.

Happy Holidays!

It’s both disturbingly, creepily cheery and factually incorrect in that way that church signs get off on being.

According to myth, Jesus hung on a cross made from wood which was once a tree, yes. But unless we can say that my computer is now sitting on a tree, as do all my books, then it’s really a stretch to make this particular analogy. Is all I am saying.
