9 Signs That Prove God Has A Sense Of Humor (Or Doesn't Understand Irony)

If you happen to believe that God possesses all qualities, then presumably that would include a sense of humor. Either that, or some sign makers have clearly deviated from His Divine Plan. You'll find these and a stunning range of other absurd signs in my Signspotting books (the most recent is Signspotting III: Lost and Loster in Translation). And you can submit your own at Signspotting.com, where I've been collecting them since 2000.

Ghana is filled with that kind of stuff. One of my favorites was the "get thee behind me Drink Stand". Also, many of the Pepsi signs in Ghana carry the slogan "The Lord is Good!" which surprised me a bit.

This one wasn't religious but it sure made us burst out laughing: Sign on a new gun store:

"Happy Mother's Day!
Glocks for sale and ammo's free!"

Did you know that every bible ever published has a disclaimer printed on the last page? It reads, "No humans were harmed in the saving of this planet".

I feel better.

Saw this one outside a church in a small town in Tennessee, I think:

Jesus touched my soul and left his fingerprints.

And this one in Milwaukee: It's a charismatic-type church called The Ark of Safety. As you enter, over the doors there is still an old fallout shelter sign.

Church signs where someone DOES have a sense of humour. Three or four are actually quite clever and a little irreverent.
