Default In Loving Memory

I can't quite understand why people put this on thier cars?

IMHO the only thing worse than putting in loving memory on your car is putting "Jesus is my Navigator" on a damaged car.

LOL I took a pic at my normal stopping distance but you couldn't make out the details so I pulled up some. I still have a few feet in between us. Bumper to Bumper traffic this morning in Nashville.

In Tennessee your front windshield can not be tinted, your driver's door and front passenger door can be tinted up to 35%, and all other windows are up to Drivers preference.

Since we don't know the story behind this particular Memorial, is it right to judge?

I would not place a memorial on the side of the highway where someone died in an accident. But some folks find comfort in it.

Some people grieve one way, some in other ways.

Some people respect that, some don't.

I wouldn't consider what I've posted disrespectful, but instead inquisitive. Maybe the "Jesus is my Navigator" comment was a little bit of a low blow, but if you can't take a light punch in the gut you need to stay away from the internet.
BTW if you've got a "Jesus is my Navigator" sticker on your car and you run into someone, doesn't mean Jesus lead you into the other vehicle. It just means you weren't listening to the Navigator in the first place

and frankly thirteen dog I don't give a rats behind what Tenessee's window tint numbers are, It would not surprise me if your state did not require all of the widows on vehicles to be blacked out, so as not to scare the the ones that must share the road with you'all when you come to florida to show the kids what streetlights pavement and working plumbing is like.

I do find that just becouse someone chooses to make a reference that would let others know that they do seek the guidence and assistance from a higher Being, OK. Mabye Im a little sensitive since my dad and brother are preachers and my grandfather and great grandfather were as wel. You once again have offended l

No, it means I don't have to worry about my future after someone runs into me.

Has nothing to do with my driving skills and He has no control over where my vehicle happens to be going.

It's called free will. You don't lose that by becoming a believer, you gain it.

Besides, I doubt He would lead me to ram my nose up the @ss of another car, just to get an inquisitive picture.

You're so correct, but because you weren't listening to your Navigator and made the Choice (free will) not to listen you ran into another object.
It's humor Franc, Laugh a little and you'll live longer

Thirteen dog,,,Its your generation and the belief that its "ok" to say and do anything without thinking first if those comments might offend someone and francly I don't think you care.

Do you take it upon yourself to express Your opinion and spread it as "Everyone's" opinion? I for one was not offended, and I have lost friends to cancer and car accidents. I am agnostic so I will presume that is my problem, lol.
