Object Exercise in Missing the Point


This series of photos came from an email circulating the internet right now. What's so remarkable to me is the number of ways the conversation on these signs miss the point about Christianity, relationships between God and between one another, heaven, etc., etc.

How many angels can dance on the head of a pin anyway?

@ Dan: LOL! Yes, it's just another internet farce! (see Snopes regarding how it was done: http://www.snopes.com/photos/signs/dogheaven.asp ) However, I still thought them illustrative of what we too often do - talk past one another and engage in arguments for the sake of "winning" [but not winning friends!]. I appreciated the internet monk's posting on this subject, too, the other day:
