    The Anglican Church of the Holy Spirit in Surfers Paradise, on Australia’s Gold Coast, has made the news for a rather iffy church sign.

    Church signs aren’t usually rocking sex-related puns, but I guess they do things differently Down Under.

    The first person to spot it was local politician John-Paul Langbroek (real name, no jokes), who shared it on Instagram.

    I think I get what they mean, but it is still pretty cheeky:

    When the church was quizzed about it by a local newspaper, reports Mashable, they explained:

    “You don’t open your mouth and yell at somebody, you close your mouth and swallow,” they told the newspaper. “If you want to say something, keep your mouth closed for a bit. Swallow it, don’t spit it out.”

    Wise words.

    Avid followers of church signs might think this all sounds rather familiar, and they would be right. Here’s one from a Florida church last November:
