10 Signs You've Overdosed on Church

For those of you who still have a sense of humor about church (a good sign), a friendly list of warning signs to watch out for to keep you walking in the light, rather than being blinded by it.

I realize some of you may now feel obligated to pray for me or hate me, depending on how deep in the water you were dunked, but if those who still believe in science and reason get a chuckle out of this, I'm okay with that.

Your Facebook status constantly brags
about how "blessed" your day was.

You smile all the time,
whether you feel like it or not.


You spend less time with your family than you used to,
because you are so very busy doing the Lord's work.


You can quote from all your favorite scenes
in the Left Behind novels.


You home school your kids,
so they won't be exposed to sex or science or thinking.


The last romance novel you read ended with a baptism,
instead of an orgasm.

You hold hands and pray before eating lunch at Applebee's.

You covet your neighbor's Bible cover.


You take your kids to see the dinosaurs
at the Creation museum.


The sheep in your church are all the same color.



Places where I snagged the images (the sheep are mine)
Have a Blessed Day
