God is a hard act to follow….in bed?
This seems in poor taste to me. Dateline Wellington….
A billboard sponsored by a local Anglican church that shows Joseph and Mary in bed has set tongues wagging in New Zealand, with the Catholic Church condemning it as others found it funny.
The controversial billboard, erected by St Matthew-in-the-City Church in Auckland, shows a dejected-looking Joseph under bedcovers beside a sad Mary. Underneath the image, a caption reads: “Poor Joseph. God is a hard act to follow.” (Source)
They said, “We are just trying to get people to think more about what Christmas is more about.” Uh, yea, nothing like feeling emasculated to make a guy think about the real meaning of Christmas.
This seems more bothersome than the Church of the Big Wood or the Holy Ghost Weenie Roast. Why? Because it is intentional.
