Hallelujah! But Could You Turn Down The Amps A Bit?

For your Sunday morning, if you are of the appropriate persuasion: another photo from the lonely Jesus rock band rally. I posted a picture from this event on May 29.

The people in the red and black shirts under the sign on the right are taking pictures of the Old Court House and the Arch, indicating what's got their attention.

There are bumper stickers and even highway billboards around my area with this characteristic green and white sign. I just found the web site of the people who do all this. They are home-grown, based in an affluent suburb of St. Louis. Religious considerations aside, isn't this a bit strange? I wonder what effect they think these signs will have on people who see them.

View From On High

Kiener Plaza, a couple of blocks from my office downtown, has a small amphitheater sunken below street level. Last Saturday a Christian rock band was on the stage, filling the area with sound. It was probably due to the sound system, but I couldn't understand the lyrics. There was little audience, except for the occasional dog walker and photographer.
