Ciudad Juarez

Monday, 6th June 2005 by James

In the city of Ciudad Juarez , Mexico (just east of the Uffington White Horse) is this large type painted on the side of a mountain. The text reads “CD Juarez, La Biblia es la verdad. Leela.” which translates to “Ciuadad Juarez, The Bible is the truth. Read it.” The letters have to be repainted every couple of years to keep it legible and can be seen from nearby El Paso, Texas (more info).

CD Juarez, La Biblia es la verdad. Leela.

Thanks: Tyler & Bill

    Well, painting it at least keeps the fundies busy from witnessing. I tell you though, if I owned that mountain, it would read: “¡Apuesto a que Usted no puede trasladar esta montaña!” (”I bet You can’t move this mountain!”)

    Thumbing your nose at God. Yeah, that has worked really well for people in the past. One word for you — earthquake.

    the Horse is ‘art’ made by the guy who owns the mountain.

    bret: that’s just odd vegetation i guess.

    Kowy: that weird circle is actually on the U.S. (check the hybrid). Who’s the weird now uh? hehehe :) . I have no idea what it is btw.

    The Bible is The Truth Read it!

    We read in 1 Peter 4:17: For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God [in the churches] …

    … Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Revelation 18:4

    Let God be magnified!

    Kowy: that circle surely must be related to the 1997 “meteor”, right? ;)
