Seen outside a Walgreens. Maybe the owner was getting some antibiotics.

You’ve got to admit, evolutionary theory doesn’t have a satisfactory explanation for the frog-into-prince phenomenon.

You call them “antibiotics.” Giblets calls them “Jesuspills.”

I’m guessing that the comparison of “scientists” with fairy tales flew right over the driver’s head. Unless there is s deeper game here. I’ll have to analyze the angle of the bumper to determine if it was a real God-fearing SUV or some pinko Prius.

Alternate wording:
Fairy Tales Say God Created the Universe. “Creationists” Call It Intelligent Design.

I’m through with scientists; they’re all played out
Scienticians can remove all doubt!

Not to be obtuse, but like Mo MacArbie, I could not decide whether this was a pro or anti science bumper sticker.

Ok. So the fine print: “Testimony Time” suggests anti.

The Brothers Grimm were both scientists, incidentally.

I am proud that believers in Biblical Truth might have the guts to stand up to Fairy Tales.

Many people don’t believe people like me when we say that the point of intelligent design creationism is to take down science itself. Maybe this will help persuade them. Apparently, the people who say evolution occurred are not actually scientists.

Man, no one gives fairy tales the respect they deserve these days.

No, I’m going with irony on this one. Maybe s/he was getting antibiotics out of solidarity.

No, not irony. The inside of the car had an embroidered cross on the dashboard.

Fairy Tales say a Frog Gullotined a Prince…
“Political Scientists” call it Revolution

Not to be obtuse, but like Mo MacArbie, I could not decide whether this was a pro or anti science bumper sticker.

The small print (if you click through and view at original size in Flickr) gives it away: ‘Testimony Time’, located here on the web. Of course, it may be displayed ironically.

Also featured: “School SHOOTINGS PROVE When You Take God Out You Invite The devil in”. I couldn’t find one that explained church SHOOTINGS.

Actually, transforming a frog into a prince is straightforward; it just takes millions of years. The reverse transformation, or those involving princesses and swans, have yet to be demonstrated.

In ancient times, before digital photography, one used to drop off a roll of film and return later, only to be assured that “one day your prints will come.”

“’Scientists’” say frogs and princes share a common ancestor.
