neatorama sez: Our pal Cory Doctorow of Boing Boing snapped this photo of a sign apologizing for the yard of London’s Seven Sisters Church being closed due to “misuse.”

really makes ya wonder, doesn’t it? seems like it could be a metaphor for a whole lot of churches, actually.

I used to live in Seven Sisters. It is a slightly rough area (although not nearly as bad as its reputation). I wonder what happened at that church yard.

we had to start closing the main sanctuary to our church and only leaving a side chapel unlocked for day-time due to vandalism, defecation and theft. it’s an unfortunate part of our world today that we are sometimes effected by.
