Not so odd in my universe.

A Christian + a Jew = .... Me.

Although putting all that shit on your bumper/back is odd in my universe.

And I mostly posted it for the floor board almost being down.

This patch is actually Riders For Christ. Not all of the patch stitching shows up in that photo. It has various symbols related to Christianity.

OT, but love that Depression-era car too. My dad, in his '80s, tells tales of how they would carry a stack of tires and tubes with them on long trips because it was routine to go through four or five in a few days. But, there were also lots of little gas stations everywhere, and everyone could patch a tube and get you going again.

For sure-- my observation is that if someone has to make a big to-do, there is probably a reason.

The first thing I noticed on the photo was the rider's heel about to make good friction with the asphalt. That say ouch!

Those boots will probably neither walk on water nor slide along the pavement to support him.

Would Jesus rather we spend money to feed the hungry or buy a shiny red two wheeled toy???

Considering how many times the second coming has failed to happen, I'd say he's still out riding.
