what if God was one of us...

I spent Thanksgiving in God's Country...North Carolina.
God has apparently taken up residence there.
There is a church on every corner...and on every
other corner, a mall.
As I drove down God's highway, every car proudly
displayed Bush bumperstickers...the rearview mirrors
were drapped with crucifixes and I swear I saw a
car with not 1, not 2, but 3 giant yellow ribbon stickers,
that read "Support Our Troops."

I thought I'd take my mind off of the God-fearing right wing
and turned my head to the left...just in time to see a
black billboard with 10ft. tall letters that asked the
question, "LOST?"....and in smaller type at the bottom,
"Jesus will show you the way."....The final straw was a
block long trailer truck....on the side of the truck,
no lie, it read G.O.D.
And in smaller type underneath....
Guaranteed Overnight Delivery.

Yep...this is God's country alright...
And I'm just here on a Visa.
