London Break - Part 2

Following immediately after the brief encounter with the guy in Leicester Square, I found this in a phone box. Made a change from the various escort services advertised in pretty much every goddamn phone box in the city.

Hit the jump.

London Break

Last month, I partook in a family trip to London for a couple days. On our last night there, there was a guy standing on a stool in Leicester Square, yelling at nobody in particular about how they were doomed to hell, and handing out copies of this very tract. Of course, I took one off him. He asked me if I was a Christian, to which I replied in the negative.

The tract itself is classic scare-you-into-converting material. Hit the jump.

Meet ZBC

Every Sunday at half 2, almost without fail, members of the Zion Baptist Church will make their merry way into the city centre, pull out an amplifier, and politely inform passers by how much better they are than you, while handing out various tracts. Occasionally they'll also show up at art exhibitions and theatre shows and Marilyn Manson gigs, to protest their EVILNESS! They also have Billy Connolly on their shit list.

The rest of the tract follows after the jump as usual, plus a bonus video of ZBC in action.

And you thought the shops were bad

Today is the third of September, which NATURALLY means it's time to break out the Christmas themed stuff. I found this today in a phone box on Sauchiehall Street, along with a bunch of other tracts. Even supermarkets usually have the decency to wait until October.

Hit the jump for more festive cheer.

Prepare to meet thy sandwich board guy

One day, just a block away from Central Station, there was a guy with messy hair wearing a sandwich board saying "PREPARE TO MEET THY GOD" on it, handing out tracts. He was like the ultimate in the whole "THE END IS NIGH" stereotype. I couldn't NOT take a tract off him.

Hit the jump for the inside.

Standing dramatically in a patch of nice weather

Ahh Jehovah's Witnesses. This one actually got posted through my letterbox during one of their door-to-doors a long while back.

Hit the jump for the back.
