The words "God" and "Jesus" are banned at the Houston Cemeter #1 (permalink) Mon Jul 04, 2011 15:36 pm   The words "God" and "Jesus" are banned at the Houston Cemeter
 

I'm appalled at this news that I've just heard on the radio: the words "God" and "Jesus" are banned at the Houston Cemetery.
I wonder if it's a one-off deal....
What has this world come to, it's just outrageous!
I wonder which side Obama is going to come down on. I think the goverment should never get itself entangled in religious affairs, it's against the Constitution.

Actually Tort I think they should just ban all swearing in cemetery's completely or maybe even have swear box's around so if you say "Oh my God" or "Oh Jesus" it just costs you a dollar.

Swearing in the cemetery is naughty.

Yeah you've got my vote, an apostrophe misuse jar (along with a "passed versus past" misuse jar, and a "allowed versus aloud" misuse jar and so on) would go a long way.
A buck a misuse will get the country out of the finantial mess.
Hehe.

Actually come to think of it...........

Most Cemetery's have enough "box's" as it is.
