I am not an atheist but these signs are a little tacky to me. One yard had three signs across their lawn. Has anyone else seen these signs in their neighborhood?

there are many tests to separate the wheat from the chaff

I think they are tacky as well. Looks like little cemeteries all over. Blech.

Some people would associate those signs with cemeteries. A lot of people think of ALL of The Villages as one big LAST Stop on the long life-train to the Promised Land. Live it up to the max one last time! So in that respect, the Jesus 2020 signs ARE appropriate (at least for the Christian persuasion). Personally, I prefer the "WEAR YOUR MASKS" signs that would point people to the positive possibility of delaying that Promised Land for as long as possible. Maybe giving more time to really earn that ticket into a Promised Land. WE all could use a little more time, I promise.

Glad the Jesus 2020 signs don't bother most people. They then should welcome the signs going in that say "2021 is the year of Satan"

I wouldnt care. As long as my neighbors yard doesn't look like a garbage dump, who cares. To each his own.

They are but unless you report them there will be nothing done about them.

Is it too early to put up my Christmas tree?

Velvet 10-13-2020 05:55 PM

No but you only get 30 days to keep the tree up.

Deed restriction should be followed whether a person read them or not, it’s like your mortgage papers, it doesn’t matter to the bank if you read or understood the document. All that matters is that you signed.

My heart goes out to these people with the crosses who feel that they need them. If I put out a cross (and I don’t) it would signify my asking God to pass over my house from Covid, like the blood on the houses in the Old Testament to the angel of death - except of course there is no promise this time. Somehow these crosses do not compare to election signs for me.

However, we all agreed to deed restrictions, so if you want to change them, you have to work through the proper channels not just break them.

OrangeBlossomBaby 10-13-2020 06:49 PM

I'll put it the same way I put my opinion about the white crosses in the other thread:

As long as you don't mind your next door neighbor putting a flag that says Allah 2020, and the other neighbor putting one that says God is Dead 2020, and another that says Wiccan Goddesses 2020, and another neighbor's flag reading Mohammed 2020

then Jesus 2020 is fine. If you have a problem with any of those OTHER "religion_2020" flags, then you probably should take yours down.

post is a microcosm of humanity, those who prefer individualism versus those who prefer uniformity and control. Those who have a more judgmental personality type, versus those who have a more perceptive personality type. Birds of a feather flock together, until a pecking order is required.

and one wonders why a mask request can't be followed temporarily?

evidently some posters don't understand how humans and humans in a society works

and as I tell my adult offspring, "Old people get fussy/strange, and at some point, I will appear fussy/strange"

same as my parents appeared to me the longer they retired

Uh ... no. Nothing in deed restrictions says that.

These signs will result in job creation when a special counsel is appointed to investigate church interference in the election. The investigation will take about three years and will dominate news cycles.
