Reactions from the congregation are varied. Some people are offended by the "disrespecting of the Lord's building", others find the good-natured teasing to be just that. Some have even said that the church should use the publicity to its advantage, selling T-shirts and other "Chicken Church" paraphernalia to raise funds.
Via The Huffington post, "The "Chicken Church" , also known as Church by the Sea in Madeira Beach and not to be confused with Church's Chicken , went viral when a photographer noticed that, from just the right angle, the structure's round windows look like eyes and its roofing tiles resemble wings and a beak. Tourists, reportedly by the hundreds, now line up to take pictures of the visage.

Some comments include: "My late husband and I were married in that church, as was my son many years later. It's truly a beautiful church inside and out, but I must admit that, from this angle at least, it does resemble a chicken. Just wish I'd noticed it before my husband died... it would have given him quite a laugh
