John's latest video explains how for a small fee you can have guaranteed entry into Heaven:

It also mentions the tax advantages of establishing a Church, now could this apply in NZ?

 

Anyway, you may enjoy watching "Church of JC Capitalist".

BT just gives me the creeps something fierce. I wouldn't leave him alone with my kids.

Well, I'm already an ordained minister in the Universal Church Triumphant of the Apathetic Agnostic (motto: We Don't Know, and We Don't Care), so I'll probably take a pass on JC's outfit. Its tempting to convert though...

Awesome! A new religion to put on the Aussie census next tuesday!

 

 

 

Apparently "Jedi" gets you an automatic "No religion" at the ASB.

I am pretty sure Jedi means withheld response, rather than Atheist.

 

Big difference there.

 

Correct me if i am wrong
