I had seen a brief email about sorryeverybody.com and apologiesaccepted.com, so when I saw this billboard:

...I connected it with those projects in my mind. But it's not that at all.

Instead, it says this:

Dear Everyone,

We are sorry. As Christians, we are instructed to love everyone unconditionally. We know there are many people who claim the name of Christ but don't show the love He instructed us to.

For every time we have judged you, we are sorry. For every time we have hated you, we are sorry. For any and every time you have experienced anything but unconditional love and respect as a beautiful creature of God, we are sorry.

We see the way you have been treated and it hurts us because we love and respect you. We offer no excuses, just our sincere apology.

-The Christians

Hmm. Not sure what to make of it. I'd rather get respect as a human being instead of being forced into someone else's conception that all humans are beautiful creatures of God, but that's a minor complaint.

(For those of you in Austin, this billboard is in the parking lot of the Kerbey Lane on Guadalupe, where the Marines' recruiting billboard used to get defaced on a regular basis.)
