The following was spotted in a church bulletin recently!
The following was spotted in a church bulletin recently!
I was sitting at a traffic light this morning. The lady in front of me was going through papers on the front seat of her car, and when the light changed to green she did not obey it's command - a green light is a commandment, NOT a suggestion.
When the light turned to red, and she had still not moved I began (with my windows up) screaming epithets and beating on my steering wheel. My expressions of distress were interrupted by a policeman with gun drawn, tapping on my window. Against my protestations of "You can't arrest me for hollering in my car," he ordered me into the back seat of his police car.
After about two hours in a holding cell, the arresting officer advised me I was free to go. I said, "I knew you couldn't arrest me for what I was yelling in my own car. You haven't heard the last of this!"
The officer replied, "I didn't arrest you for shouting in your car. I was directly behind you at the light. I saw you screaming and beating your steering wheel, and I said to myself , "What a jerk, but there is nothing I can do to him for throwing a fit in his car." Then I noticed the cross hanging from the rearview mirror, the bright yellow "choose life" license tag, and the Fish symbol, the Jesus is coming soon bumper sticker, and I thought you must have stolen the car."

Remember ... "You may be the only Jesus some folks ever see!"
