I am really unsure how Christian medicine is different from any other good doctors, so maybe these quotation marks are correct. We imagine that we are different! Thanks, Sam.
whoa whoa, calm down. If you read my personal blog you will find that I am myself a committed christian (which may make me more suspicious of others who broadcast their "christian" medicine - as it implies that other doctors are not). About quotation marks, though. Just because they aren't incorrect does not make them necessary. lighten up.
Christian Doctor: "I've got good news, bad news and The Good News. The good news is you're going to heaven. The bad news is you're going there today. The Good News is that God sent his son Jesus down to earth to live as a man, and die for your sins! Pretty good, huh?" ^_^
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

At least they aren't "different."
Is’nt that a quote from Life of Brian?
I imagine you walk out completely cured every time.
Hi, just discovered your blog from a colleague. Never too late!
Billions of great writing pieces... Impressive.
It seems we are doing the same kind of job in ours, although it's in french, and we are much more boring, because we're academics, you know...
Is this similar to Christian Scientists? If so, I wouldn't recommend going there for medical treatment...
I don't think this is an unnecessay quotation. It's a quote. You may not know who or what they are quoting, but it's perfectly acceptable.
If they had said
We are "different"
you might have had something.
This one seems fine to me.
Of course, maybe you're just being intentionally hostile because they're identifying themselves as Christian...

Hi, the doctors say "We are different" - this is a quote, quoted speech.
Seems borderline to me. They're definitely unnecessary, in the sense that the sign would be perfectly fine without them, but they're not wrong.
I also question whether "we are different!" is really a plus when shopping for medical services, but that's another issue.
wow, great post...
thanks for this post...
I like this blog.........
