St. Louis, MO – April 2, 2012 In an unexpected move, Google has today purchased LCMS, Inc. Immediately upon acquisition, the trademark burgundy cross of LCMS, Inc. was changed using Picnik’s fill tool. Synod president Harrison described the new color at a press conference today as “Google Blue.†As part of the agreement all LCMS Congregations and their members must within 60 days cease all use of Facebook. In a concession to the LCMS, Google has agreed to change the name of “Circles†on Google+ to “Koinonias.†However, with this change, all alterations to a user’s “Koinonias†must go through doctrinal review before being approved. The tagline for Google+ in all advertising will also be changed to “Google+ is Life Together.†A Google spokesperson was quoted as saying, “Google+ has been an absolute bust. No one, and we mean no one, was using it willfully. Compulsion is our only hope and our new strategy. And we have the capital to implement it. We acquired LCMS, Inc. using only funds deemed petty cash in the desk of three mid-level secretaries.†Other changes for the synod include:
This move followed the conclusion of the pilot program Google had involving the Lutheran Church – Canada. (Come on, it is close enough to April 1st, right? Oh, by the way, the Blue Cross is the only real part of this post.) |

I do it myself. IF you reply I will send you to the theme I use.
You’re kidding right? You place the House of our Father in a business corporation,LL corporation…Clearly Defiling The WORD OF GOD…breaching the ethics of the LAW, instituted by God, that God’s House is a place for Worship and prayer..Not a place of business…Furthering…One cannot serve two Masters, GOD and money…..and despite The RULES GOD HAS GIVEN IN HIS OWN HOUSE…FEEL THE RANKING TO OVER RIDE GOD’S RULES BY placing God’s house in the entanglements of money/government…allowing the federal government, to establish their dominance In our Fathers House..and you people are worried about the color of a cross displayed as a trademark? What a minute “TRADEMARK” since when did the purity and BEAUTY of the “BROWN” WOODEN CROSS….the PRECIOUS HOLY SYMBOL JESUS suffered and DIED ON FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF OUR SINS….Become a relic, of common reducement, treating this MOST BEAUTIFUL,AND PRECIOUS SYMBOL, That reminds us OF GOD’S GREAT COVENANT OF LOVE GIVEN TO US, THRU CHRIST OUR LORD, THAT BY HIS SUFFERING AND DEATH ON THAT BEAUTIFUL BROWN CROSS.Our SINS ARE FORGIVEN!!!!And you people are treating it like a piece of merchandise WORRIED ABOUT if THE “COLOR” is right for “TRADEMARK” Perhaps You PEOPLE OF LOFTY CHEST BEATING ESSENCE..ARE not aware of this, but the CROSS , THAT is being Trademark by a church, sends a message to a self proclaimed right of Divinity, projecting yourselves better than the peasants! Oh Yea, Jesus talked about them, you know those pharisee’s, the hypocrite’s! You should be more concerned with your own soul and the souls of others not pow wowing about changing the beauty of the Cross to which it already has!
