For the record. This makes perfect sense in
English.English as we tend to use a (dot-period)
here rather than a colon, though the colon is acceptable.
Maybe you have got a trendy English Vicar!

I thought about it; would such a person work at a southern baptist church?

LOL. God needs money. God has a dollar price.
But that is indeed what evangelists say.
The church signs on 'The Simpsons' are great.
My favorite is: "God Welcomes His Victims".
In tonight's syndicated rerun the
sign was "No Synogogue Parking".

That's weird, normally priests are pretty adept at locating colons...

Probably a non-denominational church, as in one
that accepts all denominations.

Probably not, as the colons are too busy churning out the sermons.

Attention Godmart shoppers! See this Sunday's blue light special in pew
six. You can go home with a double dose of salvation for only 14.95.
Save over $5.00. Hurry, before it's all gone!
