Confusing/humorous church slogan...

This was posted on a churches sign on my drive to school today. I normally enjoy their slogans that they change a couple times a week, but I couldnt make this one out to mean any more than its literal meaning.

"Where god is glorified, satan is worshipped."

I hope they are not worshipping satan at that church.

You should ask them when the Satan worshiping service is...

only thing i can think of is they meant to use the "where" to mean "while", meaning you dont worship God , you glorify him. But that still doesnt make much sense hmmm.

Jokester teenageers?
My friends and I re-arranged our city welcome sign to say
"this weekend island closed to negroes" so i would say thats posible too.

maybe it just means in the same location. As in bad people live side by side with good people.

The only intepretation I can think of is anti-catholic. a common protestant criticism of catholics is that they worship saints and are too wrapped up in pomp and superficiality and rituals. Even then, it's a stretch.

maybe some clever vandals rearranged the letters? Or maybe the pastor is just trolling.

Good news, i drove past it last night on the way home from the bar and they changed it to say:

"When god is glorified, satan is horrified."

makes too much sense now [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

other side says "Prayer has no roaming charges."

I wish I worked at a church, only for this reason. I might not like much about them, but you gotta love churches with a good sense of humor. The contrast with the stereotypical makes it all the funnier.
