Silliness Spotted in Eugene (OH NO!)

On my way home from a job interview today (musicians gotta eat, don't know why, rules is rules) I drove my usual route home and passed the Chinese Baptist Church. It was a glance at first, until my brain caught up and realized what the sign in front was saying. "Praise the seasons, God is good."

Now, I get it. I get that the Earth is God's creation, rejoice, etc, etc. But isn't season worship a Pagan practice? Solstices & equinoxes. This must be that kinder, gentler Christianity Kevin Smith told us about. Or it's an example of the hybridization of two cultures, but, y'know, that's not as funny.
