Church Irony

As I waited at a stoplight the other day, the sign outside the Mount Hope United Methodist Church here in Lansing was showing the service times, then the alternate worship times, then the following:

Sometimes religion gets in the way of God.

--Bono

(Yes, Bono, as in U2)

So the message is what? Come to worship Sundays at 9:30, unless it gets in the way of God?

Talk about a mixed message.
