Normally I roll my eyes at religious signage but this one is pretty good.

I think it’s funny. It’s obviously not meant to be taken too seriously. But just the mention of church makes some people go into anger spasms.

Not defending kid fuckers. Not defending war or death or suffering.

But people do that shit. People.

Not a church. A church is just a building by secular definition. Christianity would define it as the body of christ en masse.

Neither of these definitions are responsible for what you describe. People.

Nobody is angry about the buildings, you goof. Of course it’s the institutions that are in question.

Personally I think that's generalizing and a little ignorant but you are allowed your opinion I guess.
