These stickers are all very clear statements of faith. All either quote or reference particular passages from the Bible or words of major Christian figures. The passages used are very carefully chosen- the words on these stickers are all advice about how to live one’s life according to the Christian teachings.
Like the stickers in the previous section, these very spiritual stickers attempt to reinforce the “conceptions of a general order of existence” of the religion that they represent. The “Christian How-To” stickers and the “Christian Spiritual” stickers have very different ways of presenting their respective “aura[s] of factuality,” however; the “How-To” stickers seem to create their factuality in modern-day terms, by using modern-day jargon. The “Spiritual” stickers gain their sense of legitimacy and factuality by using words straight out of the scriptures, albeit in an unexpected locale.
