And make his pathways straight.

Like a lone voice crying repentance in the wilderness:

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

:lol:

This was my favorite bit:

Nay I say unto you that you will tremble before Him and would that you could vanish from His very presence. And in that day you will know that you have not lived up to the covenants you made with him in the temple on that day, and you will be in Satan’s power. And if in that day with fear and trembling you raise your eyes heavenward towards me, even President Paternoster, I want you to know that I did my best to warn and exhort you.


This was good too:

And I promise that in the due time of the Lord when you have sufficiently humbled yourselves before the priesthood of God you will once again be permitted to attend the temple where sisters will be reminded of their sacred duty to obey their husbands

The background of the site makes it more readable.
It is so figurative, and the choice of the colours is convincing.

I think it's obvious Brother Pasternoster's call to become a Stake President came directly from Mormon Jesus himself.

I'm sorry Pres. I looked and then I looked again. It is too late for me.

Pres. Paternoster. :confused: :eek: :evil: :biggrin: :wink:

Amusing satire!
