Mass Car Worshipping

Detroit Brings Hybrid Cars Into Church

Oh my God... The largest church in Detroit wanted to help out the failing big three automakers, and find a way for car dealerships to sell more cars.

During Sunday worship, the church displayed cars from three dealerships on the alter, in front of the choir. All of the cars were hybrids, although I don’t think that makes it any less wrong to park them inside a church. In case you care, the cars were a Ford Escape, Chevy Tahoe from GM and a Chrysler Aspen.
