On a church sign a mile from the house . . .

"The quickest way to the top is on your knees."

Really? Churches support that kind of thing?

They usually have pretty straightforward sayings; I'm really wondering if they thought this one over before posting it. Although I rarely visit fb, I couldn't miss the opportunity to post the pic along with "What about working hard and taking pride in your job? Are we not teaching that any longer?"

Should get some folks riled.

I think you should talk to the Minister of the church and enlighten him. Recommend appropriate choice of words. He may thank u in time before it goes viral.

Conspiracy theory suggests you might have rearranged the words when nobody was watching.
Addicted to the word game jumble?

The sign in front of the Baptist church where I grew up once had "Go Phillies!"

Most people will assume it was generated with one of those online sign making sites.
