I posted about Blogathon in the TrekBBS Admirals' Lounge, and begged my dear Admirals for ideas for things to write about. One poster mentioned religion, and I said that the only way I was going to do religion would be if I invented my own cult.

So, here you go - I'M GOD. Or at least a minor Goddess. About on a level with Annoia - (I cannot be arsed to hunt down my copy of Going Postal to check the spelling)- who is the patron goddess of things that get stuck in drawers. Me, I'm the Patron Goddess of Things That Get Stuck In Your Teeth.

You may start burning the Sacred Tomato Seed Incense to me any minute now.

September 24th-30th is our great religious holiday; we fast for the first five days (although celery may be eaten on fast days, provided it's properly purified and dipped in blue cheese dressing) and then celebrate with a gargantuan feast of spinach souffle, spare ribs, and corn on the cob, followed by blackberry-and-apple crumble with extra blackberry pips.

Priests and priestesses of my order wear long purple robes with rows of sanctified golden toothpicks in their lapels.

I had an annoying lump of food stuck between my teeth. I hoicked it out, and it became the world. The spit it was soaked in became the oceans.

People pay tribute to me by painting their teeth with globs of indelible green enamel intended to represent a piece of spinach caught between the front teeth.

Worshippers who commit abominations are ritually exccommunicated by having all their teeth removed so that nothing mat ever stick between their teeth again as long as they live!

Woo hoo! Twelve and a half hours in and she's already declared herself (sorry - Herself) God. I can't wait to see what's coming 'round, say, hour 23! :D

Neither can I, cause it'll be as big a surprise to me as it is to you!

Sorry, I couldn't join. I am a ranking priest in the Church of the Great Meech, after all.

I'm in that one too - I think I'm the Grand Badger or something. Plus I'm the High Priestess of [livejournal.com profile] reapie the Lord Of Cake and a member of the dot_pet_snark cult.

Polytheism in action!
