A prayer from atop the Rameumptom

Post by Reuben » Wed Jun 13, 2018 11:29 am

Holy, holy God; we know that thou art God, and we know that thou art holy, and that from the beginning of eternity thou wast male, and that thou wilt be a glorified man forever.

Holy God, we know that walking thy covenant path hast separated us from our brethren; and we do not believe in the abominable creeds of our brethren, which were handed down to them by the apostasy of their fathers; but we have chosen to be thy holy children; and also thou hast made it known unto us that we belong to thine only true and living church.

But thou art the same yesterday, today, and forever; and thou hast given us to live eternally in heaven as heterosexual monogamous or polygamous royalty like unto thee, whilst all around us shall be separated and live eternally as single asexual servants unless they repent and become like unto us; for the which holiness, O God, we thank thee.

And we also thank thee, O God, for a prophet, that we may not be led away after the wicked traditions of our brethren, which do darken their minds in pride and disbelief, which doth lead their hearts to wander far from thee, our God.

And again we thank thee, O God, that we are a chosen and a holy people, if we don't fall out of the boat and lose everything like all those poor worldly slobs. Amen.

Church of England prayers are a bit more humble:

You are channeling a dangerous amount of realistic Mormon culture.

Now it just looks like they are trying to compensate for something.
