Nobody’s going to remark on “Your pizza experience managed by John”, let alone photograph it and put it on the net. really, You think that is more likely than the more obvious explanation? Really? Like I said, I do not agree with the interpretation of the articles. They are flat out wrong. Did you see my google search? It’s more than just three, and it is all over the country. You really think there are that many Christ(inas, tophers, ines) managing Papajohns? That seems less likely than my interpretation. Why wouldn’t the label clearly be able to print out their name? Why wouldn’t they put Chris? ---

I did find a article which had “Your Pizza Experience Managed by Reese” and one by Jeremy, but these predate 2012. I think maybe Papajohns is using their old “Your pizza experience managed by…” and is now putting Christ’s name on the box instead of the actual manager’s name. I could be completely paranoid though. I can admit when I am wrong. It just seems a strange coincidence they wouldn’t have bothered to make a longer name fit on the box. ---

> [@tdn](#): > > That-a-boy. Take one for the team. Actually, comically enough, there was a pizza box in the office when I walked in here. “Pizza Experienced managed by Tim McG” So I’m betting it’s a manager thing and people are just getting their panties in a twist because it has to do with religion and people gotta hate on religion. ---

For the record, my post wasn’t intended to mock or criticize **April R**. I was just pointing out that this was likely coincidence heightened by the fact that people will remark on it and photograph it while not giving a second thought to non-Christ managed pizza. This is one of the dangers of the net. It’s a BIG world and there are bound to be some unlikely coincidences in it. People remark on the coincidences and ignore the mundane things so we end up with a somewhat warped view of the world. ---

Because any mention of relgion that isn’t an outright promotion counts as hatred, right? Not curiousity, not mild dislike-just hatred. ---
