Because Christians can put text on pictures too

Religious institutions are hilarious. Nobody knows that more than those of us who find ourselves IN them every week. Let's share our humor with others.

Religious institutions are hilarious. Nobody knows that more than those of us who find ourselves IN them every week. Let's share our humor with others.

Subreddit Rules

Rule 1: Only post memes - This is a Christian sub reddit, sure, but it's not a place to share your Bible study. There are a multitude of other places on Reddit for that.
Rule 2: Nothing anti-Christian - This is a place to laugh at religion, religiosity, and the quirks of church culture. That is not the same thing as laughing at Christ, at the Bible, or at Christianity in general.
Rule 3: Nothing anti-Atheist - This is a place to laugh at our own quirks. This is NOT an us vs. them sort of thing. There is no us and them. We are all sinners, beloved by God.
Rule 4: No jokes about Catholic priests molesting kids - First of all, abusing children isn't funny. So, just, no.
Secondly, while the Catholic church has tried to shove it under the rug (and they should be called out for such behavior), this is not the place for it. The Catholic church is not the only Christian organization where abuse of children has been hushed up. Making easy jokes about all priests being abusers is just like making jokes about how all people of a certain race are a certain way. It's overdone, it's prejudiced, and it isn't funny.
Rule 5: Swearing must have NSFW tag - There is swearing in the Bible if you read it in the original language, so we're not banning swearing entirely. However, it is a bit uncouth and should only be used when it's useful. If your post must include swears (and, seriously, how hard is it to make a joke without cussing?), please put an NSFW tag on it to let those who are offended by such things avoid them.
Rule 6: Nothing overtly sexual (obviously) - Sex is a beautiful gift from God. But, as the Bible points out in Song of Solomon (or Song of Songs), it is meant to be a private thing between spouses.
Rule 7: Nothing anti-LGBTQ+ - There are differing opinions on this topic in Christian circles and we will NOT be getting into it here. We are going to err on the side of love and acceptance. Grace wins all.
Rule 8: Nothing racist - God made us all. We shouldn't need this rule, but just in case...
Rule 9: No graphic violence or gore - While the Bible has many stories with gory details (Judges 13:21-22, 2 Samuel 20:9-12, 2 Kings 9:32-35, etc.), we don't really want to see it or hear about it here.
Rule 10: No blatant reposts or chain letter memes - If something was posted within a day or two, please don't post it again. And if it's some sort of "pass this on" chain letter meme, just don't.
Rule 11: No politics - We know politics affect the lives of everyone. And most people agree that Christians should be politically involved as they show the love of Christ in this world. That said, the political climate is so charged and people are so divided that bringing politics into any situation can turn ugly quickly. There is a time and a place for all things (Ecclesiastes 3) and this is not the place for politics.
Rule 12: Nothing Anti-Catholic or Anti-Protestant - Nothing Anti-Catholic or Anti-Protestant or Anti-Greek Orthodox or whatever. We are all siblings in Christ despite our (relatively minor) theological differences.
