11. A Court ruled otherwise

There was a federal court ruling that states did not have to accomodate all religious or other beliefs when issuing licence plates.

I believe it was a southern state ruling, I'll have to look it up.

5. And some idiot will stick it on their car and think it will protect them
while they drive like a maniac, cut people off, run red lights, and exhibit road rage.

Nice. :eyes:

16. Maybe someone down there should put forth a proposal for a Muslim plate. Of course
it'll be turned down, then they can sue. I'd be interested in hearing how they can explain approving one religious plate and then deny another.

20. jesus plates
I believe Woody Allen said it best in "Hannah" (via Max Von Sydow) "If Jesus came back today, and saw what they were doing in his name; he'd never stop throwing up!" Priceless....

22. Well, that will make them easier to identify and avoid.
And do they really want a picture of a dead guy who had been tortured on a license plate that says 'Sunshine State'???

23. My Grandmother...
...always said, 'Jesus does not need a PR campaign based on bumper stickers and license plates'

Having a picture on your tag of Pre-Zombie Jesus is sort of creepy....but, he does seem to have nice Pectorals...

27. That portrait is ridiculous

Jesus, being an Aramaic-speaking Levantine Jew, would have looked like an unshaven smaller version of Jeff Goldblum. Instead, this portrayal of him look like a trimly-bearded, hippie version of Brad Pitt. Instead of a Jew from Palestine, they make him into a bleached blond California surf bum. But that's the way of the extremist right: instead of God making us in his image, they make God into their image. Their next generation of Jesus portrayals will probably have him with a beer belly, an Alan Jackson cowboy hat and a plaid hunting shirt, and instead of crucifixion, will have him die by a shotgun blast to the face administered by a balding, snarling, vice-president. "Forgive him, Ronnie, for he knows not where he aims."
