Thank you, God

Last week I was driving, of all places , to a bowling alley in my realtively tiny college town, and I noticed a billboard in the distance:
Quote:
Please don't abort any more of my babies. Thank you, God.
Now, who has the right to do this?? Has God made some kind of copyright agreement with a certain religious that they get to use his name for their cause...does God get royalties? If God isn't making money off the use of his name then, who is? How are we so pompous to use God on a billboard on push an agenda we don't even know God follows? What if God doesn't agree, is it fraud? I have seen other one's apparently signed by the Virgin Mary herself! When they aren't running heaven, are God and the Mary corporate slaves trying to make a quick buck? You'd think Jesus would notice sometime if his mom and dad were whoring themselves off to some billboard company...


Or is something just completely and morally wrong about using the idea of God to push your agenda on a trashy billboard? What are the implications of this?

I don't know about you, but I smell a rat...
