1. The fish sign on a business really turns off most Christians

in my town, and I have heard A LOT of discussion about that. A number of fish sign businesses in this area have turned out to be real crooks, so in turn that casts doubt on all the other businesses with the sign. Plus most Christians don't like the use of Christ as an advertising tool.

5. You mean the guy here in my town with the fish AND the slogan?

Get this: He has a GiANT fish on all his work trucks, and the slogan "GOD. The ULTIMATE Power Tool". (I kid you not!). Perhaps God is slipping, I still have that curtain rod to hang, and it's just sitting there, still!

2. The fact that Fish and Flags are the trademark of many transmission shops

makes me wary. A shop that used to be down the street from me was one of the more blatant early adopters. Hell, the fish was as large as their sign. Funny, they appeared on many Eyewitness News scam alerts and had horrid BB reports.

I guess Chuck Colson and his ilk would only say that they are persecuted for their Christian beliefs. :eyes:

3. 4 USC 8 1(i)

(i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown.

4. Honestly, I initially thought those fish symbols were for an auto

dealership.

I had seen ones with "Bass Chevrolet" before - and when I started seeing the "Jesus Fish", I thought it was just a new advert for a car dealership . . .

6. It's been posted before but

it's worth another. The site would make me laugh if it was satire. Since it isn't it makes me :cry:

7. Fish? WSB says it best:

"If you're doin' business with a religious son of a bitch, get it in writing. His word isn't worth shit, not with the Good Lord tellin' him how to fuck you on the deal."

- William S. Burroughs

8. If I see a business with a fish in the yellow pages...

I avoid that business like the plague!

Hell, they don't need my money anyway...God will provide for them.
