View Full Version : places of worship next to each other
It'sNotWorthComplaining!

I was driving through Narrewarren north today and there is a huge Church being built and next door to it is a huge Mosque being built.
The Church has large placards around under the eaves "Saying Jesus Is Lord" . Over the adjoining fence, I wonder if the Mosque will have "Muhammad is the profit " on theirs? ;)

For a moment I thought you were going to tell us something important like:
"There is a Mercedes dealership next to a Landrover dealership."
The two places of worship (no, not car dealerships), one is descended from the sons of Abraham, the other is descended from the daughters of Abraham.
They're family. I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure the god botherers would be too tied up in their own affairs.
It makes sense really. Where you find a Maccas, you find a KFC and Hungry Jacks.

Funny but you might find a sign on the mosque saying "Jesus is a prophet" as the koran has him listed as such.

Is Masters that hardware chain opening up owned by Woolworths?
Bunnings in Scoresby are going all out to change their store as Safeway builds there huge hardware joint across the road from them.
If you find a cheaper price on a stocked item we'll beat it by 10%, if Woolies has the same offer one wonders how many times you could go back and forth before they say shove off.:D

I think there is a bit of land left, maybe it could be like car city, it could be called religious city, just need a synagoge ,a kingdom hall, and a church of latter day saints, scientology and the exclusive brethren.

They're all in it for the profit (Pastafarians excepted).

If there was a synagogue nearby then between them they would cover Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

St Barnabas Church on Broadway in Sydney for years displayed a message, often topical, on its notice board. Messages like "Come inside and find peace in the holy spirit." Another place of worship directly across the road, the Broadway Hotel, usually replied with a twist of the same message but usually related to alcohol. "Come inside and find lots of beer and spirits."
Unfortunately the church burned down and is in a rebuilding phase as a consequence the battle of the noticeboards seems to have taken a break.

And they might be able to meet council regulations on providing parking space by sharing a carpark:)

Jews are not supposed to drive on the Sabbath so no car park needed for them. Park around the corner so you can be seen walking to Temple.

No, but their Chauffeurs can drive them there.
