I always thought Virginia was part of the bible belt... but after taking our trip across country, I am thinking we are the last notch on it.
I started to take pictures but decided I don't want to contribute to the feeling the signs give me, the main one being guilt. We saw signs about abortion that were so offensive I wonder what makes anyone feel they have a right to say such judgmental things. It's one thing to voice your opinion, but damning people really isn't our job in my opinion.
I wonder if those types of people would say yes to the death penalty, feel it's OK to discriminate against any person, place or thing... feel it is OK to force their life style on other countries whether they want a change or not. Unfortunately I know many of 'those types of folks' that would and do. Everyday.
The 2 stores that shared a building in Tennessee were: GUNRUNNERS and Jesus is LORD ... and the subtitle under that was: Jesus is LORD, We buy Guns! What message are they trying to send? What does that translate into for kids growing up and reading that message everyday? We also saw a billboard in a corn field in Kansas that had Jesus eating corn, he had a big ole smile on his face... and then there was this one... jesus holding wheat! What is the message trying to convey... cause I just am not getting it...?
