Jesus is Real … ly colorful?
May 9, 2008
I have never understood advertising or messages on moving vehicles. I can see the point of semi-trucks getting a dose of advert largeness on the side of the trailers. Park em and they are instant billboards. I thought that the “In memory…” messages were too much. Then I was stuck behind the Jesus-mobile.
The message isn’t offensive but the colors are. A color blind person is going to miss at least have the message and wonder why the hell some whack job tossed random laminate letters all over their car. The message repeats incessantly over the entire car like it has the same effect as subliminal messaging. Instead it has the unintended effect of a Crayola box screaming religious mantras at you in I-4 traffic.
I guess this also makes the car a lifetime purchase. I see no getting the decals off after years of baked on sun love from the Florida sky. Plus what happens if this thing totals out. Imagine the message as you drive by the mangled wreck, “Jesus loves you but can’t teach you how to drive”. Maybe there is faith built into the evil repelling nature of the letters. Or just that the wild colors blind the on coming drunk causing them to veer off into the way of some poor lost, unforgiven soul.
I don’t think Jesus had this in mind when he sent is disciples out to the world.
