Humor in the newspaper
I saw this in the Aug 9 print edition of the Washington Post and had a really good laugh.
In the Style section, the second page called The Style Invitational "sought ideas for new religions" (in a contest).
Here's one of the (honorable mention) entries that you might relate to:
The Church of St. Andrew: Followers of a little-known Scottish monk who manifested stigmata in nine places on each hand; its members celebrate those 18 bloody holes by playing golf every Sunday morning. (Peter Metrinko, Chantilly, VA)
For good measure
Other honorable mentions :
Lowest Common Denominationalism: The religion that lets you get away with the most stuff without going to Hell. (Steve Fahey, Kensington, MD)
Salivationists: They not only speak in tongues, they speak in drool. (Marty McCullen, Gettysburg, PA)
there were dozens other that made me LOL.
and the Winner:
Church of the Guiding Light: Adherents believe that no one truly dies; those who expire will become renewed as their evil twins -- after a season or two. (Lawrence McGuire, Waldorf, MD)
