I have a list of stupid facts and laws that I put at the bottom of my salon newsletters, I think people just pick the thing up to see the new silly fact or law.I don't think I would quote from the bible though because of the fact people would find it offensive. But hey whatever works

This is in very bad taste to anyone that has a different religion!VERY BAD TASTE !!! AND YOU CALL YOUR SELF CHRISTIAN?You need to read how a Christian should behave.I AM SHOCKED !

I believe it is a good thing...and am glad that they do that.

How could it be a good thing to alienate and offend clients on a daily bases?Any one that is not into the bible would be very offended.Now if you put up quotes from all religions that would be a different story.But still ofensive to non religious persons.You have to think of your clients comfort first.

i dont think bible verses are offensive most people. sure there are people out there that will be offended at anything, but you can't cater to everyone!

You know Chippp if you don't print what chapter and verse it is referencing and use a version of the Bible that is not King James then chances are most people won't even know it's scripture you're quoting. The Amplified, NIV or the Revised Standard would be good versions to use if you're wishing to inspire you're clients. Before you spout off about the Bible, make sure you know what you're talking about.------------------ Laurie

Just some food for thought...Not everyone subscribes to a Christian religion. In all fairness, you could consider putting quotes from various religions. Don't you think that someone that is Hindu or Buddist, etc might feel a little ousted?------------------bober96@megsinet.com www.suntanning.com Moderatorwww.tanlovers.com AdministratorSupporter of TSO

Personally I would just make up any old thing and pretend it was from religion. Or I would just make up my own religion altogether."Fish who crosses road with no sunscreen need more tartar sauce" Quote from Rah-Men-Noodle------------------ Laurie
