UNTIL FAITH DO US PART

In the final comment to my last post (“KNOWS JOBS”), I included a link to satirewire.com and its report that a wedding of Hinduism and Judaism wasn’t working out. This was certainly sad news, but religion’s nabobs are nothing if not forward-looking, and so one little divorce isn’t the end of the world. I have it on God authority that a number of other religions are asking, not “If at first you don’t succeed, why, why, again?”, but “Just because those hot-headed Hinjews can’t get their act together, doesn’t mean others couldn’t overcome their doctrinal differences.”

I understand that the following are some of the marriages currently being proposed, and I’m sure you join me in hoping that most, if not all, of these unions come to pass and live happily ever after:

BUDDHISM / SUNWORSHIP  (BUDDLIGHTISM)
HARE KRISHNA / SUNNIHOLYWARISM  (HAIRY WARRIORS)
SHAKERS / QUAKERS  (FRIENDS ALL A’TREMBLE)
CONFUCIANISM / JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES  (CONFUSED ONLOOKERS)
ZOROASTRIANISM / COMMUNISM  (THE MARXISTS OF ZORRO)

WITCHCRAFT / TRICKLE-DOWNISM  (VOODO ECONOMICS BELIEVERS)
BAHA’ISM / GRINGO-WORSHIPPERS  (BAHA  CALIFORNIANS)
SIKHISM / ANDYESHALLFINDERS  (KARMASIANS)
ROMAN CATHOLICISM / PROTESTANT  (POPE & CIRCUMVENT)
EPICUREANISM / CHINESE ZEN  (TICKY TACKY TAOISM)
