"Google It" Says The Synagogue President
Many of my SEM friends have seen the pictures and stories with messages on Church signs that read "Some questions Google can't answer..." or flavors of that message. It has been spreading through the country actually, just look at the dozens of photos on Flickr of such signs.
I have been in a new Synagogue for about a month now. And although the Rabbi has never mentioned Google in any of his speeches, the president often does during his announcements. He would say, to learn more about Y or to contribute to X, Google [organization name]. Makes me smirk to hear that. In fact, the president I believe is well into his 50s, maybe even young 60s (I hope he doesn't read this - he has no reason to). So the age and, what would be, perceived nature of this man surprised me to mention "Google It." But he does and it works.
Maybe one day I will become president and I will tell people to "Ask.com It."
Oh, not Jewish, not Christian and looking for something to believe in? Try the Church of Google. :)
