Regular readers have probably noted that we like to pick on cheesy church signs from time to time here at TC. (Allow me to once again plug the Crummy Church Signs blog.) So how can I resist pointing out this photo-tour of the history of church signs over at Slate? They may be occasionally witty, frequently cringe-inducing, and often theologically dubious, but it seems that church signs have earned themselves a definite place in church history.
A history of ch__ch signs (what’s missing? U R!)

IF this is actually a CHRISTIAN website, WHY would you have a link for a website that so terribly blasphemes Christ?

Christi, did I miss something? Which of the sites do you think is blasphemous?

Andy, she may be referring to the link to Slate – for example, on that page is a link to an article on “how to throw a bachelor party” with a rather “loose” photo there. That’s my stab at it…

Ah, thanks Jay. Christi, sorry if the Slate site disturbed you. I’ll be careful with links in the future, but please understand that when we link to an article on a site, we aren’t endorsing (and have no control over) other content you may find on that site.
