How about "Abortion is the epitome of selfishness."
They won't put the baby up for adoption. They would rather kill it. I don't want it and you can't have it either.

I realize this thread is old. I have created some Catholic bumper stickers recently. I was doing some research in search engine ranking and found this post. Anyway, all except the last design are my designs. I'd love any feed back you can offer. Thanks.

Abortion IS a choice: to MURDER

To "Verily319"
You said "Btw, anyone have any advice on what, exactly, I ought to call myself? I can't honestly say I'm Protestant anymore, and I'm not Catholic yet, technically, so I don't really know how to label myself at the moment."
Why not simply say you are one of God's children?
I my opinion there is too much "Us" versus "Them" in a community that worships the same God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
All are trying to worship God in the way they feel is correct, and I am sure God understands this. At the time of judgement, I don't think he is going to judge you according to which denomination you belong to, but in how well you have tried to follow his teachings -as you understand them.
May God extend his blessings upon all who read this page.

Adoption: A BETTER Choice

PSS, that's hilarious!
Here's my bumper sticker submission: "Shame on you for judging me!"
(not so much Catholic as ironic and anti-relativist)

Protestant = one who "protests" against Jesus Christ and His One and Only Church!
Dear Barbara,
Your comment makes me very sad and angry. You have displayed arrogence, lack of understanding, and hate for your brothers and sisters in Christ. I love the Lord my God. Who are you to judge how I worship him??? Shame on you.

How about:
When does the Bible say the Apostolic Age ended?
-Dave

As a former fundamentalist protest-ant, I'd suggest that the title of my all time favorite book (instrumental to my conversion) would make a great bumper sticker,,,
Born Fundamentalist...Born Again Catholic.
Thank you for ever and ever, David Currie!!

How about
Martin Luther:
Got Keys????

But that wouldn't be a *Catholic* bumper sticker.

About the one that read: "You can't be Catholic and Pro-Choice", I like this one better: "You Can't be Pro-Life and Pro-Death Penalty".

"No Mary, No Jesus..." is an excellent message. No Catholic should care about what a Protestant thinks about Marian devotion. The Catholic faith is from GOD, it's not decided upon by popular vote. Why should any Catholic be ashamed or shy in the (false) name of 'ecumenism' to declare pubicly (and with greatest joy!) that they give due veneration to the Blessed Virgin Mother of God???

"How can you say there are too many children in the world? That’s like saying there are too many flowers."
Easy. Two words: Soylent Green.

Here are some nice Catholic Car Decals, they hold up very well, and it's a mom and pop shop.

Abortion Hurts Women
Those crazy feminists need to realize this.

Wise men still look to Mary and her child.

You can actually make your own stickers at makestickers.com (and you don't have to buy in bulk)

If it were possible to have a picture of an unborn baby with a caption "This is a baby"
(another picture of a box of Kleenex) with the caption "This is tissue"!
This was actually run as a print ad in some newspapers. I forget where I'd seen it on the web. If I can find it, I'll post the link.

Just happened on to this site. Interesting.
Another bumper sticker idea-

Only the very evil are "pro"-war. Unfortunately, given our fallen nature, it is often necessary to use force to combat evil, or else evil wins.

To the person that likes to upset democrats, as if republican were any more compatible with faith:
How about this:
" How Can You Be Pro-Life and Yet Pro-War?"
How does that work on your conscience?
by the way, this bumper sticker is already out.

Buzz, there was a sign like that at the March for Life except it was a panda.

I like the one with a baby seal on an ice floe holding a sign that says "Save the Baby Humans".

How about-
"Confession-It's good for your soul"

God is Love
Save the Babies
In Good Times and Bad I will be Faithful to the Bride(the Church)
Mother Teresa has some good quotes too...
How can you say there are too many children, that is like saying there are too many flowers
I agree that Charity and understanding bring us closer to God. We have to set the example. I truly believe that converts and reverts teach most cradle Catholics the true meaning of being Universal. They desired the Truth; searched long and hard with all kinds of obstacles and it was found...key word "desired." We can learn so much if we just step out of our comfort zone. Also, by defending the Faith we learn why we do the things we do...it is not habitual it is LOVE. And how could we, full of sin, can give good gifts...so much more our Father in Heaven. I pray for all who seek Truth and are called to come home...One Shepard and One Flock

Technically before the Rite of Acceptance/Welcoming (Precatechumentate) a person is called an inquirer or candidate.
You have my prayers, Tope, as you seek His will.
Take care and God bless.

Thanks, Lori! Catholic catechumen works for me.

And my favorite:
"Repeal Exurge Domine!"

"A picture of Mary pointing to Jesus and the words "Do whatever He tells you.".
Or (here in the Bible Belt) the Papal crest and the words "Give Me That Old Time Religion".

"Are you SURE you're an agnostic?"
LOL!
Yeah, if the canard about 30 or 60 thousand denominations were true, pretty much every Protestant congregation in America would have to be a denomination unto itself. Do the math.
Now, there's this guy,G.K. Chesterton with a word-hoard of pithy quotes. I wonder what might be found there for bumper stickers?
"Christianity is not tried and found wanting, it was found hard and not tried"

Dan:
It's good you used the word "denominations" in quotes the second time, but you should have the first time as well (i.e., 27,000 "denominations".) The Protestant idea of a different denomination doesn't have anything to do with differences between theologies. I've posted this before and I'll post it again. There aren't 33,000 some odd denominations. Just a whole bunch of different churches. IMHOP, that's still a bad thing, but each of these denominations does not account for some new radical branch of Protestant theology. Most Protestants believe in the same basic core beliefs. And if one were to analyze the range of Protestant belief systems, the number would not range anywhere near the thousand, though I think one or two hundred is not a bad estimate (depending on how picky you were. One could always state just 10 or so and have a good argument for it.)
OK, so now I've placed two more cents down. I'm a half a thought away from having put a nickel in the pot. :)

Getting back to the comments from APV (sorry, that's your nickname from now on:) and Tope about us rude Catholics. I have a particular sensitivity about that since my wife is a Protestant (who's decided to become Catholic herself.) I've watched her have to deal with these types of 'barbed' comments firsthand.
ex:
We were at a church listening to Rosalind Moss speak and we were with a friend who's a lapsed Catholic. Every time people got holier than thou about their Catholicism, all three of us became uncomfortable. This friend of ours is at a crossroads in his life, and who knows how that attitude will negatively affect him. I think a source (definitely not the only source) of the problem is that Catholics are continually being hurt by Protestant attacks, and when we find answers to these attacks, there isn't an understanding of turning the other cheek, so we get a bit arrogant and haughty with our answers. Which is obviously wrong.
Anyways, that's my two cents.

To the "Protestant Visitor" who was offended by my "bumper sticker" - sorry- I ment no offense. The problem with these "one liners" is that they can be misunderstood. "Protestant = one who protests et cetera---" No, I don't think that protestants are "hopelessly lost", as a Catholic Christian I must always hold onto HOPE for every human soul. And I can be a "friendly nurturing soul". But the Catholic church is in ONE CHURCH of Jesus Christ. Jesus did found only one church and He prayed in the Gospel of John that "all would be one". The sad fact is that Catholics and Protestants are divided but we should try to find ways to work together. There should always be mutual respect, always charity. As a protestant you are baptized and the Catholic Church accepts your baptism as valid- that makes us brothers and sisters in Christ.
But to speak the truth is a great charity. The Catholic Church (the one Church of Christ) was in great need of reform at the time of Luther (1517). But that shouldn't surprise us, the church has needed reform in every century and is in great need of reform today! It's made up of sinners- God doesn't have any other kind of people to work with. We have ALL fallen short. But there was no protestant "reformation". Let me explain-
Look around the room where you are right now- suppose you're there with a friend. You decide to reform the room. You could paint the walls a different color, or put in different lighting, or different floor covering. Then you would have "reformed" the room. But if your friend goes outside and across the road and builds another room, he has not helped you "reform" the original room. He left that original, on his own authority and started another. REFORM must alway take place within, or it's NOT reform. Call it protest or revolt but not reform.
During the 1970's there were about 27,000 protestant denominations- today there are MORE than 33,000 "denominations" and the number is still growing, sad fact. Each one claims to be guided by the Holy Spirit. Each group is founded by "sincere" people. But being sincere is not enough. Talk about a "house divided against itself". And Jesus prays that "all would be one". These divisions violate that "oneness" in the most grievous terms.
I would invite you to take a close look at Catholic claims and teachings. It is said "to go deep into history is to cease to be Protestant". Reading and studying Catholic teaching my bring you into the the fullness of the Faith- or least you'll come away with a better understanding of what Catholics actually believe and why. We need to work together in this tough world that hates Christians.
If you would like a further exchange I'll give my email. Vincent2275@hotmail.com
Then I'll suggest somethings that you might consider reading. In the mean time look up the web site of Dave Armstrong called the Protestants.
Search under his name. He is a former Protestant who writes extensively on the early Protestant "reformers' from their actual writings.
God Bless you till we all meet in the Fathers House.

B16 Bumper stickers and more...
I'll be adding more to this site soon.

Remember all the hype about "Y2K" and the turn of the millennium? I wanted to have a bumper sticker that said:
THE 2,000 YEARS OF JESUS CHRIST.

I wasnt born Catholic, but the rest is history now!

I wasnt born Catholic, but the rest is history now!

I'm a papist, he's a papist, she's a papist, we're all papist...WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BE A PAPIST TOO?

Tope,
Welcome, and blessings to you on your journey into the Catholic faith! I believe you could call yourself a Catholic catechumen...someone correct me if I'm wrong...

"He will rise again!"
Who will rise again? Lazarus?

Protestant Visitor -
That's great that you're thinking about Catholicism! I am in the process of converting (starting RCIA in the fall), and I can sympathize with your less than warm feelings when it comes to the more barbed comments about Protestants. I think you're totally right that we need to be careful about giving people the wrong idea about Catholicism. I think a lot of people also miss that many Protestants (in my experience) have no real idea of the history that's gone before them. They don't know what the Church taught for 1500 years, and they don't really understand what was at stake in the Protestant Reformation. They haven't rejected Catholicism - they couldn't possibly, because they know very little about it. I understand that it grates on a lot of Catholics to have Protestants tell them they believe things that they don't believe, but most of that stems from sincere ignorance, not any real hostility.
At the same time, I would definitely echo the commenter who encouraged you to judge the faith by what it teaches. I am absolutely thrilled about becoming Catholic, but I'm also glad that I'm going into it eyes open. I believe the fullness of the faith is to be found on Rome's side of the Tiber, but I have no illusions about the people being nicer than anywhere else! Catholics are just as sinful as anyone else, and we've got our fair share of sharp tongues.
Btw, anyone have any advice on what, exactly, I ought to call myself? I can't honestly say I'm Protestant anymore, and I'm not Catholic yet, technically, so I don't really know how to label myself at the moment.

I'm not totally opposed to the idea of protestant bumper stickers with a catholic twist, but alot of these *are* barbed and *would* perpetuate common misunderstandings (e.g. replacing "Jesus", with "Mary").
Of course the best ones are the ones that poke fun at atheism.
"'Nietzsche is dead' - God"

How about this one:

or
"Are you SURE you're an agnostic?"

Easier said than done.

To Protestant Visitor:
Judge the faith based on what the faith teaches. Truth, not Community. A bumper sticker is just a bumper sticker.
