    Pure genius! Where else could you find so many morons, ready to be brainwashed?

    Check out the Witness reference at the end. Too funny!

    The Jehovah's Witnesses could not be reached for comment about any possible NASCAR sponsorship.

    If the dubs did sponser a car, I wonder what it would look like? Hmmmm

    I can see it now....no reference to Jehovah, Jesus, just a big WATCHTOWER across the hood. I can't think of what would a good racing witness graphic....maybe Jehovah's chariot racing to throw fireballs down at a track?

    (Ya know...at all those drunken sinners leading that debaunched lifestyle)

    Back in the day when Mighty Auto Parts was a boomin' business (and owned, at least partly, by JWs) they were approached about sponsering race cars by different levels of NASCAR. I don't know if they were ever asked to sponser at the Winston Cup (now Nextel Cup) level but I do know they were asked about sponsering some on the Busch series and some of the Winston Weekly series at small bull ring tracks. But, if I remember correctly, they were "discouraged" to do so by higher-ups who counseled them (and their independant distributors) that racing was a "dangerous sport" and a "christian" would not participate in the sport as a driver or otherwise, so why should they consider sponsering a race car.

    The Raelians (Quebec, Canada) also sponsor a race car...driven by their cult leader, but it is not NASCAR.

    I liked this from the comments section:

    The Jehovah's Witnesses' would never even consider making such a sponsorship! Besides, how successful could a Jehovah's Witnesses sponsorship be? It would be constantly stopping and leaving copies of the Watchtower with fans and concession stands and would never complete any laps!

    I'm not sure but I bet it would be a Buick.

    Now that I tink about it, the hard core NASCAR fans should find the Scientology appealing.

    Watching cars drive for hundreds of miles and only making left-hand turns does have a numbing effect on ones senses.
