I actually took no sarcasm in that post.... I'm taking the lab to the nearest river; she'll get exercise swimming while I find "approved by god" rocks.
Now I just need a domain..... godapproved.com & approvedbygod.com were already taken.

An unexplored market is in "church tiles" (for roofs). It is custom in US religious communities to have regular disputes over faith and a need to leave the congregation of the faithful, hook up with like-minded Godly buddies and build your own church 500 feet away from the old one. Church construction and items like "blessed roofing tiles" is even better than the real construction industry.
Gimme me five minutes and I'll find a stone on the beach that looks like it has the face of Jesus. Ya can get it photographed and print off 100,000 copies all personally autographed by Jesus at $19.95 each (plus S&H) - an obvious instant earner - "Bring Jesus into your home and enjoy this wonderful work of art on your living room wall, proof that you are a true believer. Not available in stories".
You'd be surprised how well the "Religious Background Check And DNA Tests" for political candidates sell at election time. That's an obvious prerequisite for any good member of the flock - we can't have political heathens making decisions on building roads, hospitals and military bases etc. "Secure your government now - keep the devil out of Washington and protect your family with this simple series of candidate tests covering pro-life and gay rights - all for just $199.95 (plus S&H). If you order within the next 10 minutes, we will double your order - that's TWO complete tests for just $199.95. God knows you want to secure your government from evil - order now!"
There is no sarcasm in this post
